[RELEASED] Python 3.3.0 alpha 1
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 On behalf of the Python development team, I'm happy to announce the second alpha release of Python 3.3.0. This is a preview release, and its use is not recommended in production settings. Python 3.3 includes a range of improvements of the 3.x series, as well as easier porting between 2.x and 3.x. Major new features and changes in the 3.3 release series are: * PEP 380, Syntax for Delegating to a Subgenerator (yield from) * PEP 393, Flexible String Representation (doing away with the distinction between wide and narrow Unicode builds) * PEP 409, Suppressing Exception Context * PEP 3151, Reworking the OS and IO exception hierarchy * A C implementation of the decimal module, with up to 80x speedup for decimal-heavy applications * The new packaging module, building upon the distribute and distutils2 projects and deprecating distutils * The new lzma module with LZMA/XZ support * PEP 3155, Qualified name for classes and functions * PEP 414, explicit Unicode literals to help with porting * The new faulthandler module that helps diagnosing crashes * Wrappers for many more POSIX functions in the os and signal modules, as well as other useful functions such as sendfile() * Hash randomization, introduced in earlier bugfix releases, is now switched on by default. For a more extensive list of changes in 3.3.0, see http://docs.python.org/3.3/whatsnew/3.3.html (*) To download Python 3.3.0 visit: http://www.python.org/download/releases/3.3.0/ Please consider trying Python 3.3.0 with your code and reporting any bugs you may notice to: http://bugs.python.org/ Enjoy! (*) Please note that this document is usually finalized late in the release cycle and therefore may have stubs and missing entries at this point. - -- Georg Brandl, Release Manager georg at python.org (on behalf of the entire python-dev team and 3.3's contributors) -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAk95PJgACgkQN9GcIYhpnLCN1QCfeYWp+QbPGYhaLSxc4YKnlE/F zU8An2q5qzvjL0qaxqaYleFGoGKPzzJu =qo4v -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-announce-list Support the Python Software Foundation: http://www.python.org/psf/donations/

I think it would be worth adding something about that. Also the what's new doesn't mention PEP 414 although the release page does. -- Duncan Booth http://kupuguy.blogspot.com -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
