[Pythonmac-SIG] MacPython 2.1b1 is ready!

[Tattoo Mabonzo K.]

Yo,

Great work Jack! The install went perfectly well (Mac OS X PB with a =
working Mac OS 9.04 partition).

I ran "import test.autotest" and got the following results:

103 tests OK.=0D28 tests skipped: test_al test_bsddb test_cd test_cl =
test_crypt test_dbm test_dl test_fcntl test_fork1 test_gc test_gl =
test_grp test_imgfile test_largefile test_linuxaudiodev test_mmap =
test_nis test_openpty test_poll test_popen2 test_pty test_pwd =
test_signal test_sunaudiodev test_sundry test_timing test_winreg =
test_winsound=0D

So no failed test due to memory size problems here :-).

One question though. Jack, do you forsee that the problem where Python =
consumes HUGE amounts of processor cycle will be fixed for the final =
release? This is a real concern AFAIC.=20

PS: I'm getting a bunch of:

--- error msg
AEProcessAppleEvent error:=0DTraceback (most recent call last):=0D  File =
