Howdy All, I have tagged 1.03.001 in CVS (revision control). This is an official release of the sources however I won't be building binaries from it unless it is requested. This release caters to those environments/distros that may wish to start catering to Python 3.
Python3 is now supported at compile time and run time. Many of the scripts that broke under Python3 have been modified to support Python2 and Python3 On OS/X 10.4 with Python 2.3.5 the 1.03.000 and earlier version can crash while closing down the embedded Python. This release fixes that issue. At present we support Python back to about 2.3 (That I have tested). It may work on 2.2 but I haven't tried. Pyhon2.2 is currently our minimum version supported. My question is whether we wish to continue using 2.2 as the minimum going forward. I am wondering if we might consider something like Python 2.7 and higher. Python2.7 can be built on older platforms that may not come pre-installed with it (much older versions of Centos and Fedora for example). Python 2.7 seems to be the minimum standard for a lot of projects these days. Python 2.7 is the last of the 2.x series. It was first released officially in 2010. To to date they are up to 2.7.8 in updates. -- Michael Petch CApp::Sysware Consulting Ltd.
