Thanks for the information. Here is a short list of what I have found confusing : a) on http://www.stackless.com/wiki/Mercurial :It is not clear if the version numbers are not up to date or if it is the right revisions for that versions. In my opinion it should be clear how to choose the latest stable releases. b) choosing the right revision number seems impossible : so many available when browsing the sources (for example what means default? where is 2.7.6?) and then I tried to infer from the precompiled and in some cases I failed (2.7.6.r3, 3.1.3-slp, if I remember well). c) on http://www.stackless.com/wiki/Download the version numbers of the precompiled do not always match the already installed CPython 2.7.6 for os 10.9 when it is actually 2.7.5.
