At www.python.org/2.3.1 there's links to the release candidates for 2.3.1 - Thomas and I are still running all sorts of tests against it, but if someone else wants to give it a go, that'd be good. We're on IRC #python-dev on irc.freenode.net.

It's probably worth pointing out that this page isn't linked into the site yet, nor is it in the sitemap.

Don't worry, one of the webmasters (probably me, AMK, or Fred) will make sure to tidy up. -- Aahz (aahz@pythoncraft.com) <*> http://www.pythoncraft.com/ "It is easier to optimize correct code than to correct optimized code." --Bill Harlan

You most post a note to python-dev when you think you've got the final release files. There are lots of things that can go wrong the first time around, and we can do some last minute sanity checks. I'd be happy to test on RH9 and Win2k. Jeremy

They are not yet ready. Tim Peters found that some Windows version numbers have not been incremented, and I'm currently changing this. It seems at least the source tarball and the windows installer have to been rebuilt. But since these are changes which should not affect the functionality too much, testing can go on. Thomas

It can't go on unless you tell me where the files are <wink>. Jeremy

There's a new release candidate tarball/exe on www.python.org/2.3.1 Feedback welcome - either here or irc.freenode.net #python-dev. Changes since yesterday: Windows build numbers updated HP-UX README note added Misc/RPM notes updated
As reported on IRC, I had good test results on the following machines with the RC2 tarball: FreeBSD zuul.dsndata.com 4.7-RELEASE FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE #0: Wed Oct 9 15:08:34 GMT 2002 Linux parrot 2.4.20-9 #1 Wed Apr 2 13:42:50 EST 2003 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux Red Hat Linux release 9 (Shrike) Linux bald 2.4.7-10 #1 Thu Sep 6 17:21:28 EDT 2001 i586 unknown Red Hat Linux release 7.2 (Enigma) Tkinter works OOTB on the redhat machines without any configure option. I don't think tcl/tk are on the bsd machine, so I didn't try. (I just ran "make test", didn't enable any resources) Jeff

please could you consider - either to hand-edit the generated configure script - or rebuild configure with autoconf from current CVS to enable a correct configuration on HPUX? Please see http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2003-August/037648.html I think the first solution should be more conservative at this point, maybe using a nested ifdef instead of using the defined keyword. If neither solution is appropriate, please add a note to the target specific install section. Thanks, Matthias

Michael Hudson and I spent several painful hours on this last night - at the moment, there's an entry in the bugs.html page detailing the workaround (edit pyconfig.h after running configure). At this point in the cycle I'm extremely uncomfortable trying to either hand-edit configure or running a new autoconf. I'm recutting the tarball now, I'll add a note to the README as well.
