Moving the alpha release from after a weekend to before a weekend is a bit of a hassle for me, too. I'd hoped to have the functional->functool move done this weekend, but wasn't too worried about getting it finished because I had next weekend as a fallback. Now it appears I'll need to find time to do it sometime this week instead. That's certainly possible, but it's somewhat inconvenient. We don't all get to do Python-related things on work time ;) Cheers, Nick. -- Nick Coghlan | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Brisbane, Australia --------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.boredomandlaziness.org _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
