Hi all,

I'm quite pleased (and relieved) to announce that Python(x,y) version 2.6.3.0 has been released. It is the first release based on Python 2.6 -- note that Python(x,y) version number will now follow the included Python version (Python(x,y) vX.Y.Z.N will be based on Python vX.Y.Z).

Python(x,y) is a free Python distribution providing a ready-to-use scientific development software for numerical computations, data analysis and data visualization based on Python programming language, Qt graphical user interfaces (and development framework), Eclipse integrated development environment and Spyder interactive development environment. Its purpose is to help scientific programmers used to interpreted languages (such as MATLAB or IDL) or compiled languages (C/C++ or Fortran) to switch to Python.

It is now available for Windows XP/Vista/7 (as well as for Ubuntu through the pythonxy-linux project -- note that included software may differs from the Windows version):
