Following the rc1 I have uploaded rc2 candidates to

https://downloads.python.org/pypy/ and the checksums can be found in the 
PR to pypy.org

https://608f07a183d23c00083f6115--keen-mestorf-442210.netlify.app/download_advanced.html#checksums

The changes are in the release note.

https://doc.pypy.org/en/latest/release-v7.3.5.html:


- The new windows 64-bit builds improperly named c-extension modules 
with the same extension as the 32-bit build (issue 3443)


- Use the windows-specific PC/pyconfig.h rather than the posix one


- A change to the python 3.7 sysconfig.get_config_var('LIBDIR') was 
wrong, leading to problems finding libpypy3-c.so for embedded PyPy 
(issue 3442).


- Instantiate distutils.command.install schema for PyPy-specific 
implementation_lower

- Four upstream (CPython) security patches were applied


- When assigning the full slice of a list, evaluate the rhs before 
clearing the list (issue 3440)

- On Python2, PyUnicode_Contains accepts bytes as well as unicode.

- Update the packaged sqlite3 to 3.35.5 on windows. While not a bugfix, 
this seems like an easy win.



Please try them out
Matti
