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 :)

True. If the rc's are actually tested and help avoid embarrassment
I'm all for them. If it's just extra work that few will test, then
let's skip them and just do brown bag releases if necessary.
