Thanks, Benjamin!  I'd also like to thank Martin and Ronald for the prompt
binaries, and the folks of #python-dev for support.  RMing was a pleasant
experience so far.

Four shall be the number of spaces thou shalt indent, and the number of thy
indenting shall be four. Eight shalt thou not indent, nor either indent thou
two, excepting that thou then proceed to four. Tabs are right out.

Are you already trying to lure other people into replacing you?

On behalf of the Python development team, I'm happy to announce the
first alpha preview release of Python 3.2.

Python 3.2 is a continuation of the efforts to improve and stabilize the
Python 3.x line.  Since the final release of Python 2.7, the 2.x line
will only receive bugfixes, and new features are developed for 3.x only.

Since PEP 3003, the Moratorium on Language Changes, is in effect, there
are no changes in Python's syntax and built-in types in Python 3.2.
Development efforts concentrated on the standard library and support for
porting code to Python 3.  Highlights are:

* numerous improvements to the unittest module
* PEP 3147, support for .pyc repository directories
* an overhauled GIL implementation that reduces contention
* many consistency and behavior fixes for numeric operations
* countless fixes regarding string/unicode issues; among them full
   support for a bytes environment (filenames, environment variables)
* a sysconfig module to access configuration information
* a pure-Python implementation of the datetime module
* additions to the shutil module, among them archive file support
* improvements to pdb, the Python debugger

For an extensive list of changes in 3.2, see Misc/NEWS in the Python
distribution.

To download Python 3.2 visit:

  http://www.python.org/download/releases/3.2/

3.2 documentation can be found at:

  http://docs.python.org/3.2/

Please consider trying Python 3.2 with your code and reporting any bugs
you may notice to:

  http://bugs.python.org/


Enjoy!
