Pending Removal in Python 3.15
------------------------------
* :class:`http.server.CGIHTTPRequestHandler` will be removed along with its
related ``--cgi`` flag to ``python -m http.server``. It was obsolete and
rarely used. No direct replacement exists. *Anything* is better than CGI
to interface a web server with a request handler.
* :class:`locale`: :func:`locale.getdefaultlocale` was deprecated in Python 3.11
and originally planned for removal in Python 3.13 (:gh:`90817`),
but removal has been postponed to Python 3.15.
Use :func:`locale.setlocale`, :func:`locale.getencoding` and
:func:`locale.getlocale` instead.

* :mod:`pathlib`:
:meth:`pathlib.PurePath.is_reserved` is deprecated and scheduled for
removal in Python 3.15. Use :func:`os.path.isreserved` to detect reserved
paths on Windows.
* :mod:`platform`:
:func:`~platform.java_ver` is deprecated and will be removed in 3.15.
It was largely untested, had a confusing API,
and was only useful for Jython support.

* :mod:`threading`:
Passing any arguments to :func:`threading.RLock` is now deprecated.
C version allows any numbers of args and kwargs,
but they are just ignored. Python version does not allow any arguments.
All arguments will be removed from :func:`threading.RLock` in Python 3.15.

* :class:`typing.NamedTuple`:
* The undocumented keyword argument syntax for creating :class:`!NamedTuple` classes
(``NT = NamedTuple("NT", x=int)``) is deprecated, and will be disallowed in
3.15. Use the class-based syntax or the functional syntax instead.
* When using the functional syntax to create a :class:`!NamedTuple` class, failing to
pass a value to the *fields* parameter (``NT = NamedTuple("NT")``) is
deprecated. Passing ``None`` to the *fields* parameter
(``NT = NamedTuple("NT", None)``) is also deprecated. Both will be
disallowed in Python 3.15. To create a :class:`!NamedTuple` class with 0 fields, use
``class NT(NamedTuple): pass`` or ``NT = NamedTuple("NT", [])``.
* :class:`typing.TypedDict`: When using the functional syntax to create a
:class:`!TypedDict` class, failing to pass a value to the *fields* parameter (``TD =
TypedDict("TD")``) is deprecated. Passing ``None`` to the *fields* parameter
(``TD = TypedDict("TD", None)``) is also deprecated. Both will be disallowed
in Python 3.15. To create a :class:`!TypedDict` class with 0 fields, use ``class
TD(TypedDict): pass`` or ``TD = TypedDict("TD", {})``.
* :mod:`wave`: Deprecate the ``getmark()``, ``setmark()`` and ``getmarkers()``
methods of the :class:`wave.Wave_read` and :class:`wave.Wave_write` classes.
They will be removed in Python 3.15.
