That's an excellent idea.  We could have a webpage, or start a
topic-specific weblog for posting announcements.

I've started a draft of a 3.0 FAQ in the wiki at
http://wiki.python.org/moin/Python3000/FAQ.  Once it's finished we
can move it into the 3.0 release pages.  Everyone please edit and
improve it!


It occurs to me that this specific idea (the box with the list of  
supported applications / libraries) should be implementable as a  
simple query against PyPI.  I don't know if it actually is :), but  
it should be.  In general it would be nice to know whether one's  
favorite tools were available for *any* new Python version.


I agree with this.   Plus it might act as an incentive for people to  
port libraries faster...

We actually have a couple of Solaris buildbots already - as I  
understand it, the issue there isn't Solaris as such, it's being  
able to use the Sun compiler instead of GCC to compile ctypes/libffi.


Does that mean that we need access to the Sun compiler or that the Sun  
compiler has bugs which prevent ctypes from compiling?
