I've never been through a Python release before, but I find these statistics rather worrying if we want to make the October release date.

I don't worry. Every Python release had bugs, and there will be 2.6.1 and 3.0.1 releases.

The only sure way to resolve bugs is to revert features. If a certain module is cause of too many serious bugs, it should be dropped from the release (perhaps not from the source repository - just removed from all build processes).

Regards, Martin
