[Python-Dev] Switch to 2.4a0 on trunk?

I notice that parts of the trunk are reporting themselves as Python 2.4, but
other key parts for Windows are still Python 2.3 - eg, the DLL name, the
PC\*.rc files, etc.

Should I check code in to move everything to a 2.4 world on the trunk?

And while I am asking, I am a little uncertain about the CVS tags.  Can
someone explain the distinction between release23-branch and release23-fork
for me?  Is there a branch that will track the "latest 2.3" for the next few
years (ie, through 2.3.1, 2.3.2 etc?)

Thanks,

Mark.
