This should be fixed! I don't know who did the tagging,

Me, obviously. I think I said when I did it here.

but don't remember any coordination activities.

Well, only the 48 hour plan I posted to python-dev. Admittedly that didn't say when I would tag the tree.

This isn't the only file that was changed since whatsnew22.tex was added.

It seems I didn't run "cvs up -d" before tagging the tree or building the tarball, so Doc/whatsnew/ isn't in the tarball or under the tag.

Sorry guys.

At least nothing else got affected by this.

Can some who knows how sort out the CVS mess? I can learn, I guess, but I'd rather not risk cocking it up.

The other changes that were made in the process of building the windows installer and the docs I really don't care about (i.e. the changes Trent posted).

Is this worth updating the tarball for?

Cheers, M.
