[Guido van Rossum]
Well, from the number of release blockers it sounds like another 3.0 beta is the right thing. For 2.6 however I believe we're much closer to the finish line -- there aren't all those bytes/str issues to clean up, for example! And apparently the benefit of releasing on schedule is that we will be included in OSX. That's a much bigger deal for 2.6 than for 3.0 (I doubt that Apple would add two versions anyway).
With the extra time, it would be worthwhile to add dbm.sqlite to 3.0 to compensate for the loss of bsddb so that shelves won't become useless on Windows builds.
