between 3.0 and 3.6 (.5?) -- py3 grew a lot of minor features that made it

easier to write py2/py3 compatible code. u"string", b'bytes %i' % something -- and when where the various future imports made available?

You'll need to be more specific. future has been around for a looooong time.

I meant the various ones that support py2/3 compatibility — I know division predates py3, not sure about the others.

But it was a rhetorical question anyway :-) -CHB
