Well, that and the beta deadline (we have to draw the line somewhere,

Guido wanted to get the beta out when we did exactly so we could draw
this line in the sand. I'd much rather people be spending time getting
what features we do have tested, stabilized, bug fixed, and turning the
buildbots green across the board.
Having been caught by the 2.5 beta deadline with the changes that
eventually became PEP 361 (and I think were significantly improved by
the additional attention that was available due to the delay) I
understand completely.
(And to everyone with features that get bumped to 2.7/3.1 because of
this... while a number of you no doubt know this already, it really is
astonishing how soon the next release seems to roll around, even with
our fairly leisurely release schedules!)
Cheers,
Nick.
