Python 2.6.3

by Barry Warsaw

I had previously wanted to release Python 2.6.3 over the summer, but for various personal reasons, the summer was just too insane. I'd like to reschedule a 2.6.3 release, shooting for final release on 25- September. We should probably do a release candidate, so I'd like to make that on 23-September. Does anybody have objections to that schedule? If not, I'll try to spend some time over the next few days looking at outstanding bugs, and marking release blockers, etc. -Barry
