re: RELEASED Python 3.0rc3

On Nov 21, 9:06*am, Barry Warsaw <ba...@python.orgwrote:I'm getting confused. Final release will just say Python 3.0, right?

And 2.6 is in final release? So when ActiveState speaks of 2.6.0.0
they mean a final release?

So, if the IDLE from ActiveState comes up and says 2.6 (indicating
final release), shouldn't the copywrite message also say 2.6
instead of 2.6rc1 as shown here?
