OK, all of the release engineering for 3.6.0b4 is complete.  The 3.6 branch in 
the cpython repo is now available again but, as noted, *only* for reviewed 
release critical fixes appropriate for the 3.6.0 final and for final 3.6.0 doc 
updates!

Again, until 3.6.0rc1 is tagged, scheduled to happen in two weeks on 
2016-12-05, please do *not* push non release-critical code of any kind to the 
3.6 branch; after rc1 is tagged, the 3.6 branch will be open for 3.6.1 changes. 
 Please use these two weeks to thoroughly review and, as necessary, update the 
What's New In Python 3.6 document (thanks, Elvis and Yuri, for editing it once 
again!) and all other release documentation.

Any additional testing you can do and/or encourage others to do of the new and 
old components of 3.6 and with with third-party packages will be appreciated.  
Please document anything you think *might* be a release critical problem in the 
bug tracker marking them as "release blocker".  Assuming no unresolved release 
critical problems arise, the final two steps will be the release candidate in 2 
weeks and then, again assuming no release critical problems are identified in 
it, the final release on 12-16.

Please contact me if you have any questions about what may or may not be 
appropriate to push during these final days before the release.

So close!
