The IDLE issue is IMHO a release blocker, as is issue 6851. So that leaves 4 release blockers for 2.6.3.  Three of these are assigned to Ronald.  Ronald are you sure you will have time to fix these by then?  The one I'm still uncertain on is the IDLE hang.  If this only affects OS X 10.6 and there is no progress on it by the time 2.6.3 is otherwise ready, I'm willing to knock this down in severity. Martin, you have the other showstopper bug for 2.6.3.  Do you think you will be able to fix that one in time?

That issue doesn't require Martin specifically. I just needed to know if changing the BaseException struct would be bad (Georg answered w/ "yes"). It will probably fall on to me (or Georg if his proposed solution pans out) to get this fixed.
