Martin suggests, and I agree, that we should release Python 3.0 final and 2.6.1 at the same time. Makes sense to me. That would mean that Python
2.6.1 should be ready on 03-Dec (well, if Python 3.0 is ready then!).

2.6.1 only two months after 2.6? Why so quickly?

Actually, I've wanted to do timed releases, though I think monthly is unrealistic. Maybe every two months is about the right time frame. Timed releases are nice because everybody then knows when a patch is due, from developers to downstream consumers.

Anyway, I don't see any added value in the synchronization, so taking
in consideration all the effort you're putting in these releases, I
would just want to minimize your workload... which is easier to you?
doing both at the same time or not?

We're getting releases down to a science now! :) Actually the most painful part is updating the web site, so I plan adding some automation around that process too. OTOH, this is the first point release I'll be doing with the new script, so it'll be interesting to debug that process.

As for synchronization, I think it's a good habit to get into, if my plan to do timed releases works out.
