Python 2.3a2 release today?

I'd like to release Python 2.3a2 today, if at all possible. Is there anything (outside the Mac tree) that should really be done before this release? Note that this is *not* the last opportunity to get new features in -- that would be 2.3b1, to be released a month from now. (Unless there's a screw-up in this release, I am planning no further alpha releases.) This email doesn't start a checkin freeze -- I'll announce that later when I feel more confident that there aren't any big pending issues. --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/)

There's a serious bug in the applet support for Mac OS X. If at all possible I'd like to fix that before the release, hopefully later tonight otherwise early tomorrow. I've filed a bug report (#688907) with priority 8, but of course if you're really desperate to release tonight you can always override it, -- - Jack Jansen <Jack.Jansen@oratrix.com> http://www.cwi.nl/~jack - - If I can't dance I don't want to be part of your revolution -- Emma Goldman -

OK, we can do the release tomorrow. BTW, I asked you about your need for PyArg_Parse format codes that truncate, but never received a reply. I can't do that now, but can you at least indicate whether you still want it? (Adding a followup to SF bug #595026 would be sufficient.) --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/)
