I almost missed this ;-).
I believe Georg is basing this on past experience, both ours and the general software community...the users *always* find nasty bugs only after the first production release :) I have some hope we did a little better this time, though. Judging by the bug reports we got a bunch of pre-testing from both the Gentoo team and Ubuntu, and I'm pretty sure their testing has been more extensive this time than it was for previous 3.x releases. On the other hand, Gentoo (Arfrever) already found one crasher post-release...but fortunately it only happens in debug builds (although that could mean there is a behavior bug in non-debug builds). --David _______________________________________________ python-committers mailing list python-committers@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-committers
