The text "This is a proeuction release" should probably read "This is a production release". It would give a better first impression :)
Fixed, thanks! - -Barry

I tried to find the documentation here:
but clicking on the links:
http://docs.python.org/whatsnew/3.0.html http://docs.python.org/3.0
gives me:
404 Not Found

These 404 for me as well. but the dev links have already rolled over to 3.1a0.
There are also no cross-links from the main 2.6 docs to the released py3k docs.
I was going to suggest there needs to be something in PEP 101 about checking the doc links, but it's already there :)
Cheers, Nick.

I can't find any docs built for Python 3.0 (not 3.1a0). I would have handled building and uploading the docs if somebody (or at least anybody) had told me I was to do it. Now we again have the situation that the docs for the new release are wrecked.

Sounds like we need a bot to check the web each new release before the release manager "presses the button" and makes the announcement.

The Windows installation has new 3.0 doc dated Dec 3, so it was built, just not posted correctly.
That doesn't mean very much. I built it on my local machine. Anybody with subversion and python could do that; the documentation is in subversion.
Whether or not it appears on the web site as part of the release process is an entirely different matter. It used to be that the doc maintainer (Fred Drake) was part of the release team and release process. I think Georg is complaining that he is release maintainer, but not part of the release process.

I've asked Georg to update PEP 101 to make his role as Documentation Expert explicit. Unfortunately we only debug major releases once (or twice) every 18 months. But next time, we'll get that part right for sure!
In the meantime, I'll make sure Georg is involved in point releases moving forward.

Done that now. Since release.py builds the docs all right, there's not much left for me to do except check that everything is ok.

That's good. Thanks!
