[Python-Dev] beta1 coming real soon

[Neal Norwitz]

It's June 9 in most parts of the world.  The schedule calls for beta 1
on June 14.  That means there's less than 4 days until the expected
code freeze.  Please don't rush to get everything in at the last
minute.  The buildbots should remain green to keep Anthony happy and
me sane (or is it the other way around).

If you plan to make a checkin adding a feature (even a simple one),
you oughta let people know by responding to this message.  Please get
the bug fixes in ASAP.  Remember to add tests!

I would really like it if someone on Windows could test the perf of
patch http://python.org/sf/1479611 and see if it improves perf.  I
will test again on Mac ppc, Linux x86, and Linux amd64 to verify gains
