As recently as Python 2.6.0's release, Python.org had a link to download a 
disk image with a special newb-friendly installer for OS X. See http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.6/
Now, it's gone in Python 2.6.1, and it was never there for Python 3.0. 
Which is a pain, because it's really hard to get "readlines" to install 
just using config/make/install. 
So, whoever is in charge of making that disk image should make it again.

Unfortunately, nobody is "in charge" of making disk images (this is a
volunteer project entirely), so none might get made.

I have built a Mac Installer (and tested). I'm not sure how to upload
it, though.

Just to note that issue 4017 is related to this.

I've added installers to the website now.

Does that include a 3.0 installer? I can't see any.

No, I don't have one for 3.0. AFAIK, that hasn't even been attempted yet.

Is it possible to reopen this bug? Python 3.0.1 still has no Mac installer...

IIRC, they will be built soon.

The original bug report was about 2.6 having no installer, and that has
been fixed. In fact, the bug can't possibly have talked about 3.0.1,
since that wasn't released when the bug report is made. Changing the bug
report's topic after it is made is bad management.
So you could create a new bug report for 3.0.1 having no installer.
However, I question what the point of such a bug report would be: it
can't be to inform us (the Python maintainers) that there is no
installer - we are well aware of that fact. So such a new bug report
would sound much like whining.

What's German for "the squeaky wheel gets the grease"? ;-)

I can't think of anything; "Wer am lautesten schreit hat recht" and
"Fragen kostet nichts" come close. I find that attitude close to
whining, and I assert that it doesn't help in Python. Indeed, I
get personally *discouraged* to help when I notice it, because I
want to decide myself what I work on, instead of having others
who never contribute themselves make priorities for me.

Fair enough. In this case though, I'm not complaining for myself, since
I can compile config, make, install source (although I don't know how to
build a Mac Installer, or else I would just do it). I'm complaining on
behalf of all the AppleScript users and others who have heard about this
"Python 3" and are interested, but don't go in for using the command
line (yet). It would be a shame to discourage them from learning Python
when they don't see a Mac download link.
