It takes a day or so for hudson to pick up new Scala releases (I think
DavidB had a bad experience with a -final release that wasn't really final),
but as soon scala-tools.org picks it up I'm on it.

Jorge,
You on the 2.7.3 branch of Lift?
Ideally, we can have 2.7.3 be the 0.10 release on Jan 2.
Thanks,
David

Subject: [scala-announce] Scala 2.7.3 RC1
To: sc...@listes.epfl.ch, scala-annou...@listes.epfl.ch
Just in time for Christmas, here is the first release candidate of our
new Scala distribution: Scala 2.7.3 RC1. This new version is mainly
intended as a maintenance release: it fixes a number of bugs and
improves on various aspects of the existing code. There are no new
features, however; they are being added instead to a new development
branch, currently in its early stages, that will become the next major
Scala release sometime next year. If no particular problems are found
with this first release candidate, a final Scala 2.7.3 release should
follow in a few weeks.
You can download Scala 2.7.3.RC1, as usual, from our Download Page:
http://www.scala-lang.org/downloads. An updated Scala plugin for
Eclipse is also available (see http://www.scala-lang.org/node/94).
