New submission from Terry J. Reedy <tjre...@udel.edu>:

In Language Ref, 6.2 assignments, delete

"(This rule is relaxed as of Python 1.5; in earlier versions, the object had to 
be a tuple. Since strings are sequences, an assignment like a, b = "xy" is now 
legal as long as the string has the right length.)"
