I think the bug tracker is a way in which users communicate with developers. There have been 296 issues since Dec 3rd that got tagged with version 3.0. The absolute majority of these were documentation problems (documentation was incorrect). Then, I would say we have installation problems, and then problems with IDLE. There is also a significant number of 2to3 problems. > I'm using Windows, and although I *can* build a lot of stuff myself, I > really don't want to be bothered, so I rely on bdist_wininst > installers being available, which is an additional constraint. Notice that bdist_wininst doesn't really work in 3.0. So you likely won't see many packages until 3.0.1 is released.
