[Barry Warsaw]
So, we need to come up with a new release schedule for Python 3.0. My
suggestion:
15-Oct-2008 3.0 beta 4
05-Nov-2008 3.0 rc 2
19-Nov-2008 3.0 rc 3
03-Dec-2008 3.0 final
Given what still needs to be done, is this a reasonable schedule? Do
we need two more betas?
Yes to both questions.
I'm seeing that people are just starting to download and play with 3.0.
I expect that we'll start getting more feedback on conversion issues,
the C API, screwy interactions with operating systems, bytes/text issues,
unanticipated interactions with other tools, etc. Each user will stress
it in new ways and perhaps reveal a bunch of little integration issues
and documentation issues. Those little fixups way go a long way toward
establishing a good first impression and reputation for 3.0 from the outset.
