It might be nice to move the 'r221' CVS tag further along the 'release22-maint' branch. The tree at the current 'r221' location fails to build the docs with the following:

make[1]: *** No rule to make target whatsnew/whatsnew22.tex', needed by html/whatsnew/whatsnew22.html'. Stop.

'whatsnew22.tex' was added after the tag.

Thoughts?

We've released a bugfix release of Python, 2.2.1!

This release should be fully compatible with Python 2.2. Everyone using 2.2 is recommended to upgrade to 2.2.1. On the 2.2.1 pages http://www.python.org/2.2.1/ you can find more information, binaries for Windows, Redhat 7.2 & 6.2, Mandrake 8.2 and MacOS 8, 9 & X, as well as the usual tarball. Thanks are due to those who provided the binaries and to all who tested the prerelases during the 2.2.1 release process! One nasty bug (that affected Zope in obscure circumstances) and a few less serious ones have been fixed since the second release candidate. Two fixes may be of special interest if you use MacOS X: - This release finally works on Mac OS X multiprocessors - The IDE is now fully functional on Mac OS X. This being a bugfix release, there are no exciting new features -- we just fixed a lot of bugs. For a moderately complete list, please see: http://www.python.org/2.2.1/NEWS.txt Cheers, The Python development team.
