Nevertheless, I still think that putting out an alpha during or right
before a major sprint is awkward at best.  My testing is more focused on
alpha releases than the trunk, and I think other people work similarly.
Except for Anthony, the responses you've gotten to this surprising
change have been negative; this doesn't seem in keeping with our usual
decision-making process.

BTW, the PEP on python.org hasn't been updated.  Please post the current
schedule here.
