We had a lot of discussion recently about changing the release schedule and splitting Python 2.6 and 3.0. There was general consensus that this was a good idea, in order to hit our October 1 deadline for Python 2.6 final at least. Does it matter to anyone besides the you, the Python developers, whether the schedule slips by two weeks, or two months, for that matter?

For Python 3.0? No.

I am underwhelmed by 3.0 b3: sax and 2to3 are/were broken. A b4 release for 3.0 (at least) would seem more prudent.

We will release no Python before its time.
