Very nice.  http://www.python.org/dev/buildbot/stable/ is completely
green at the moment -- which means that I can now indeed take failures
seriously in the future.  Previously, two of four "stables" for py3k
were not even connected for ages (and yes, I should have complained
earlier.  As we progress into the beta stage, I will take buildbot
failures and release blockers more seriously).

cheers,
Georg

two, excepting that thou then proceed to four. Tabs are right out.
