Please hold off on any checkins to the trunk for the next 24 hours or so (I'll post a followup when we're done) for 2.4a2. (The usual exception for the release team of me, Fred and Martin applies).

Once the second alpha is out the door, I plan to put together a list of items that are still pending for 2.4 - any that can't find someone to do the work will have to seriously be considered at risk. At the moment, the major piece of orphaned work is the relative imports and multi-line imports. The only other piece of major unfinished work that springs to mind is the $string interpolation, but there's a bunch of other smaller pieces. I updated the release PEP after the first alpha - it's probably useful for a few folks to scan through this and see if I missed anything.

Ta, Anthony
