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):

Major changes since v2.1.17:

* Spyder 1.0.0 -- the Scientific PYthon Development EnviRonment, a
powerful MATLAB-like development environment introducing exclusive
features in the scientific Python community
(http://packages.python.org/spyder/)
* MinGW 4.4.0 -- including gcc 4.4.0 and gfortran
* Pydev 1.5.0 -- now including the powerful code analysis features of
Pydev Extensions (formerly available as a commercial extension to the
free Pydev plugin)
* Enthought Tool Suite 3.3.0
* PyQt 4.5.4 and PyQwt 5.2.0
* VTK 5.4.2
* ITK 3.16 -- Built for Python 2.6 thanks to the help of Charl Botha,

The really sad part is that you'll have to do 2.6.4.0 so soon.
Actually, it is not so sad, since so little has changed (except,
probably) the bits you have been struggling with. Please _do_
check out the release candidate soonest (since it will become
production _very_ soon) -- get to python dev immediately if
you have problems with the release candidate.
