PostgreSQL v7.4 Release Candidate 2



We have just packaged up our second Release Candidate for v7.4, with the
hopes of producing a full release next week.

A full ChangeLog is available at:

ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/sources...Log.RC1.to.RC2

But, one of the highlights is that support for tcl8.0.x has been
re-introduced.

there are alot of doc changes, and some "what appear to be" small fixes,
mostly related to the various ports.

As we are in the home stretch of a full release, we encourage as many as
possible to test and report any bugs they can find, whether as part of the
build process, or running in "real life" scenarios.

If we've heard no reports back before midnight on Thursday, we are looking
at a full code freeze, with a Final Release to happen on the following
Monday.

TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command
(send "unregister YourEmailAddres sHere" to ma*******@postg resql.org)

On behalf of the Python development team and the Python community, I'm happy to announce the first release candidate of Python 2.4. Python 2.4c1 is a release candidate - we'd greatly appreciate it if you could download it, kick the tires and let us know of any problems you find, but it is probably not suitable for production usage. At this point, we're particularly interested in build bugs. If you could grab the source archive, build it...

On behalf of the Python development team and the Python community, I'm happy to announce the release of Python 2.4.1 (release candidate 2). Python 2.4.1 is a bug-fix release.

After a relatively short period for beta5, where nothing major arose, we have just packaged up our first Release Candidate for v7.4, with the hopes of producing a full release over the next 7 to 14 days. There is only one major change between Beta5 and RC1 that, so far, has been reported back ... RC1 will no longer work with TCL8.0.x, due to a change to pgtclCmds.c: Use Tcl ByteArray objects to avoid unwanted character set translation...

On behalf of the Python development team and the Python community, I'm happy to announce the first RELEASE CANDIDATE of Python 2.5. This is not yet the final release - it is not suitable for production use. It is being released to solicit feedback and hopefully expose bugs, as well as allowing you to determine how changes in 2.5 might impact you. As a release candidate, this is one of your last chances to test the new code in 2.5...

On behalf of the Python development team and the Python community, I'm happy to announce the second RELEASE CANDIDATE of Python 2.5. After the first release candidate a number of new bugfixes have been applied to the Python 2.5 code. In the interests of making 2.5 the best release possible, we've decided to put out a second (and hopefully last) release candidate. We plan for a 2.5 final in a week's time.

Within a few weeks, we will release Python 2.5.3. This will be the last bug fix release of Python 2.5, afterwards, future releases of 2.5 will only include security fixes, and no binaries (for Windows or OSX) will be provided anymore (from python.org). In principle, the release will include all changes that are already on the release25-maint branch in subversion . If you think that specific changes should be considered, please create an...
