On behalf of the Python development team and the Python community, I 
am happy to announce the first beta releases of Python 2.6 and Python 
3.0.
Please note that these are beta releases, and as such are not suitable 
for production environments. We continue to strive for a high degree 
of quality, and these releases are intended to freeze the feature set 
for Python 2.6 and 3.0.
 From now until the planned final releases in September 2008, we will 
be fixing known problems and stabilizing these new Python versions. 
You can help by downloading and testing them, providing feedback and 
hopefully helping to fix bugs. You can also use these releases to 
determine how changes in 2.6 and 3.0 might impact you. If you find 
things broken or incorrect, please submit bug reports at
 http://bugs.python.org
For more information and downloadable distributions, see the Python 
2.6 website:
 http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.6/
and the Python 3.0 web site:
 http://www.python.org/download/releases/3.0/
See PEP 361 for release schedule details:
 http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0361/
Enjoy,
- -Barry
