On behalf of the Python development team, it's my privilege to announce the first beta release of Python 3.4.

This is a preview release, and its use is not recommended for production settings.

Note to users of the python.org Mac OS X binary installers: if you have installed earlier preview releases of Python 3.4, be aware that the batteries-included built-in Tcl/Tk library support introduced in 3.4.0a2 has been reverted in 3.4.0b1 because it was found to break some third-party packages. As is the case with earlier releases of Python, if you use the python.org 64-bit installer for OS X, you will again need to have a compatible third-party copy of Tcl/Tk 8.5 installed, such as ActiveTcl 8.5.15.1, to avoid the problematic system versions shipped in OS X 10.6+. See http://www.python.org/download/mac/tcltk/ for more information.
