[Python-3000] Fwd: Beta 3 planned for this Wednesday (OT: Beta 3 planned for this Wednesday)

[Anand Balachandran Pillai]

Hi,

    I think the patches for issue 3492 should also be merged in for this beta.
It affects the behaviour of zlib module. I have submitted patches for
zlibmodule.c
and test_zlib.py a few weeks back and they are ready to be merged anytime.

I am forwarding a message where I discussed this with Antoine, who is
CCed on the bug.

Thanks

Agreed, however I can't do it myself today. You should post your message
to the list or on the bug tracker if you want someone to apply the patch
before the beta.

Regards

Antoine.
