-This release TODO
+Jython 2.7b1 brings us up to language level compatibility with the 2.7 version
+of CPython. We have focused largely on CPython compatibility, and so this
+release of Jython can run more pure Python apps then any previous release.
+Please see the NEWS file for detailed release notes. Some notable new features
+in this release are: a bytearray implementation, a buffer api, memoryview, a
+bz2 module.
+
+As the first beta release, this marks a change in the focus of development
+from adding features to bug fixing and on getting more of the test suite
+running properly.
 
 Please see the NEWS file for detailed release notes.
