In the documents library files uasyncio.rst and uctypes.rst are still named with u prefix. The other similar files have u removed, e.g. os.rst.

all: remove u-module naming where possible

This changes almost all uses of "u-module" to just "module" for the following built-in modules:
- asyncio
- binascii
- collections
- errno
- io
- json
- socket
- struct
- sys
- time

There are some remaining uses of "u-module" naming, for the cases where the built-in module is extended in Python, eg python-stdlib/os uses uos.

Also, there are remaining uses of utime when non-standard (compared to CPython) functions are used, like utime.ticks_ms().

Assessment

Q Qwen · high

Both items address the same broad naming convention shift away from u-prefixed module names, but they are distinct in scope and repository. The query asks specifically about renaming documentation .rst files (uasyncio.rst, uctypes.rst) in micropython/micropython. The candidate PR is in micropython/micropython-lib and removes u prefix from import statements in Python source files — it does not rename any documentation files in the main repo. The candidate does not fix or close the query.

Suggested action

Leave the query open. The candidate can be cited as related context showing the broader naming convention migration effort, but the specific docs file renames (`uasyncio.rst` → `asyncio.rst`, `uctypes.rst` → `ctypes.rst`) in micropython/micropython still need to be addressed.
