Folks,
there's yet another MacPython 2.1b1 installer, this time it is build 87. 
Barring showstoppers I will announce this to a wider audience tomorrow. Bugs 
fixed since the previous b1:
- The problem with the IDE burning cycles on OSX has been fixed.
- ConfigurePython will now detect suspicious preference files (with a different
  Python folder from where it was started from, i.e. what will happen if you
  install this after you've installed the previous 2.1b1) and offer to
  remove it.
- The installer fires up ConfigurePython and waits for it.
- The installer warns about the finder activity when it finishes.
- On OSX Final you can put applets anywhere you want again. On Public Beta
  they will still have to live in the Python folder.

Grab it from http://www.cwi.nl/ftp/jack/python/mac and let me know when there 
are problems,
