That would mean that Python 2.6.1 should be ready on 03-Dec (well, if Python 3.0 is ready then!). Should we release 2.6.1rc1, too? Do we need rc's for point releases?

I think we did them in the past. There probably never was a significant change between the rc and the final, but Murphy dictates that once you stop doing the rc, the final will be embarrassingly broken :)

cheers, Georg
