[Idle-dev] Python 3.4.0 alpha 2 available

[Paul Barry]

I should've mentioned that I'm running Alpha 2 on Mac OS X (10.6.8).

I've just tried the process described by Bruce... it does not cause the
crashes as Bruce describes (on Windows) on my Mac.  Of course, this
unfortunately doesn't help Bruce, but hopefully is of interest to the
idle-devs.

Paul.
