Why obsolete pc-package in emacs 24

Hi there:
I am an emacs user, and I have compiled and run emacs 24.0.90 instead of
stable version.
However. some prior emacs settings is depend on pc-select package.
It is really embarrassing.
pc-select is really convenient to use. So, I wonder which package(s) is
more advanced and can replace the pc-select package.

As a student in china, my customization method may immature and inefficient.
so, an additional question(or just a request:)
How did you customize your own copy and paste?(such as shortcuts, functions
or invoking relationships about lines, religions or paragraphs..)


Really gratitude to receive your letters.



Best regards
Richard Wong

Look in the etc/NEWS file for this kind of information.
Read it with C-h n or from the Help menu.

  *** s-region.el and pc-select are obsolete.
  They are superseded by shift-select-mode enabled by default in 23.1.

(Note that the documentation for this may not have been written yet).
