[PYTHONMAC-SIG] MacPython 1.5 beta 3 available

[Jack Jansen]

Finally a new distribution of Python for the Macintosh is
available. It is, however, still a beta distribution. The reason for
distributing a third beta release for the Mac (unlike for other
platforms) is that there are still some problems. The main problem is
that packages ("dotted import") seem to have problems when used under
cfm68k. Other outstanding problems are tkinter problems with menus
(all platforms) and NumPy printing problems (cfm68k). Please report
your findings with this distribution to pythonmac-sig@python.org, so
we can try to iron out the problems and have a normal 1.5 distribution
in a few weeks time.

The distribution is available via
<http://www.cwi.nl/~jack/macpython.html> or
<ftp://ftp.cwi.nl/pub/jack/python/mac>.
