Press releases can lag behind, but I hope that this time the Windows and OSX installers will be released together with the main tarball. > I am also planning on releasing 3.0rc2 tonight, but only if there's time. I'd recommend against this now. We need a few more days to implement the solution for undecodable filenames. There's a patch set by Victor Stinner that does most of what I'd like to have, but it needs 1-2 more rounds of review and refinements. I'd really like to hold up rc2 until this is in. > Final releases have much more work and the process is much less tested, so > it may take me quite a while to get 2.6 final out. > > The trunk and 3.0 branches are officially frozen until further notice.
