We should treat 2.3.1 like 2.3.1rc1 and aim for Sep. 30 for a 2.3.2.

Wouldn't it be better to cut a 2.3.2rc before the final 2.3.2?
once-bitten-ly,
Well, Jeremy's "Sep. 30" is only 4 days away. If 2.3.2 is restricted to fixing just the obvious big problems already reported against 2.3.1, in reality it's like Jeremy said: 2.3.1 was really 2.3.2c1 <0.5 wink>. Don't get too gun-shy. There were lots of changes in who did what for the 2.3.1 release, and some glitches were inevitable. It *had* gotten so smooth with the same people doing the same things all the time that, e.g., you must have noticed that Guido stopped doing anything for releases. I would have liked to pay a lot more attention but just couldn't make time for it; I'm sure the same is true of the other PythonLabs alumni (including Guido). So some things could have gone better. It's not that big a deal -- next time they will go better. Remember that we pioneered all possible ways to screw up a release already, and discovered that it's a finite set <wink>.
