[Python-Dev] Sorry. No Release.

[Guido van Rossum]

I can't say how disappointed I am: at the very last moment I have
heard that I am not allowed to release Python 2.0b1 on July 1 as
planned.  Some last-minute issues have come up regarding the licensing
from CNRI.  BeOpen is going to resolve these issues as soon as
possible, but it could be weeks...

In the mean time, I thank everybody who worked very hard to make this
release a success.  We will continue to work on the SourceForge CVS
repository as before.  There will be a 2.0 release as soon as
possible!
