Hello everybody! I hope you all had as great a time at Pycon 2010 as I did. No time to begin recovering though, we're on to Python 2.6.5 rc 1, which I would like to release on Monday. We have one showstopper still open, and I'll try to respond to that asap.

If there is anything else that absolutely should go into 2.6.5, now's the time to let me know. If there are no patches ready to be reviewed and landed though, you're probably running out of time. I will be very conservative about landing patches after rc1.

Cheers, -Barry
