Agreed; let's try to avoid far-ranging sets of changes so late in the
beta cycle.
If we want to send 3.4 back to alpha and implement some form of
string-formatting changes and Argument Clinic, that would be fine,
though it might mean Ubuntu and other Linux distros might have to ship
with 3.3 again because 3.4 wasn't done in time.
I hadn't considered slipping the release, but that does seem like an
entirely sane idea. However, I'm not proposing slipping back to alpha
so we can add the cause-celebre-of-the-week bytes formatting stuff, and
we don't need to slip all the way back to alpha for Argument Clinic. A
third beta seems entirely reasonable though. Let's try the derby for a
couple of days and see how we feel.
