+Note
+====
+
+Following the acceptance of this PEP, further discussion on python-dev and
+comp.lang.python revealed a desire for several tools that operated on
+function objects, but were not related to functional programming.  Rather
+than create a new module for these tools, it was agreed [1]_ that the
+"functional" module be renamed to "functools" to reflect its newly-widened
+focus.
+
+References in this PEP to a "functional" module have been left in for
+historical reasons.
