[Python-Dev] Status of 2.7b1?

[Nick Coghlan]

The trunk's been frozen for a few days now, which is starting to cut
into the window for new fixes between b1 and b2 (down to just under 3
weeks, and that's only if b1 was ready for release today).

Is work in train to address or document the remaining buildbot failures
(e.g. test_os on Windows [1]). At what point do we decide to document
something as a known defect in the beta and release it anyway?

(My question is mostly aimed at Benjamin for obvious reasons, but it
would be good to hear from anyone that is actually looking into the
Windows buildbot failure)

Cheers,
Nick.
