I also suggest perusing the archived PyDev (Python Development mailing list) summaries for the last couple of years (see python.org). Every two weeks, Brett Cannon has condensed everything down to a few pages. You can easily focus on the topics of interest to you. For instance, there was discussion of making lists truly double-ended, but it was decided to settle for certain improvements in the list implementation while adding collections.deque (sp?) in 2.4.
