We are pleased to announce that versions 2.1.3 and 2.2.1 of
ActivePython are now available for download from
http://www.ActiveState.com/ActivePython
Both of these are bugfix releases and supercede previous ActivePython
releases.

ActivePython is ActiveState's quality-assured binary build of Python.
Builds are currently available for Windows and Linux (Solaris builds
are coming soon).

In addition to the core, ActivePython features:
    * expat for XML processing;
    * zlib for data compression;
    * Tkinter for Tk development;
    * a large set of useful Python documentation; and, 
    * on Windows, Mark Hammond's PyWin32 extensions, including the
      Pythonwin IDE, support for Python ASP, the PythonCOM system.

In addition, PyPPM (the Python Package Manager) enables you to easily
install a number of other popular Python packages. For example, try
this:
    > pyppm install Numeric
to install Numeric Python. Use this command to list all available
packages:
    > pyppm search

Please submit email feedback to ActivePython-feedback@ActiveState.com,

Thanks, and enjoy!
