cx_Freeze 4.3.3
by Anthony Tuininga 04 May '14

04 May '14

What is cx_Freeze? cx_Freeze is a set of scripts and modules for freezing Python scripts into executables, in much the same way that py2exe and py2app do. Unlike these two tools, cx_Freeze is cross platform and should work on any platform that Python itself works on. It supports Python 2.6 or higher, including Python 3. Where do I get it? http://cx-freeze.sourceforge.net What's new? http://cx_freeze.readthedocs.org/en/latest/releasenotes.html

Nose 1.3.2 released
by John Szakmeister 03 May '14

03 May '14

1.3.2 fixes a regression introduced in 1.3.1 on PyPy, and an issue on Python 3.3 and 3.4 that managed to slip by--along with a few other minor fixes. See the CHANGELOG for the details of what was fixed. Also note that nose 1.x is in maintenance mode. We will not be looking to add any features, and you should seriously consider looking at nose2 as the way forward. If you're interested in the future of nose, please take a look at the nose2 project on github (https://github.com/nose-devs/nose2) or pypi (http://pypi.python.org/pypi/nose2/0.4.7). And lastly if you have the money to spare, please consider donating to the John Hunter memorial fund (http://numfocus.org/johnhunter/). We all give up time with our families to work on free software: so now the free software community that has benefited so much from that time we took can give something back to his family. -John
