Today, without much fanfare, we opened the new PythonLabs website. The design is by BeOpen's creative Director, Jun Simmons. Thanks to Jeremy Hylton, who did most of the actual HTML editing to get our contents in place.
The new beta will be released via this site.

Guido van Rossum just won't stop surprising us! :-) Witness the three shocking news that arrived in one day: (1) very strict self-discipline about "long-term" TODO's full of short-term and less than medium-term topics that were very logically left behind, (2) major version number revision one day before the official beta-cycle, (3) a new PythonLabs corporate-style Web site with a flashing color palette & tutti quanti. I am really (positively) amazed! :-) spanish-inquisition-is-all-we-deserve-<wink>-ly y'rs -- Vladimir MARANGOZOV | Vladimir.Marangozov@inrialpes.fr http://sirac.inrialpes.fr/~marangoz | tel:(+33-4)76615277 fax:76615252
