We are going to postpone the first beta releases by one week.  We had  
some problems with mail.python.org today, which prompted a query to  
Guido from me about the postponement.  mail.python.org should now be  
back up normally now, as evidenced by the emailfloodl but in the  
meantime, Guido said:

"I'd also like to see PEP 3138 (CJK-friendly repr()) and the
pyprocessing PEP implemented by then, and perhaps some other small
stuff."

So we're going to do the first beta releases next Wednesday, June 11.   
Please take this time to stabilize all APIs and features, both in  
Python and C.  Next week, I'll do a gut check on critical and release  
blocker bugs, so please also take a look at those and try to fix what  
you can.

Cheers,
- -Barry
