On behalf of the Python development team and the Python community, I
am happy to announce the release of Python 2.6 final. This is the
production-ready version of the latest in the Python 2 series.
There are many new features and modules, improvements, bug fixes, and
other changes in Python 2.6. Please see the "What's new" page for
details http://docs.python.org/dev/whatsnew/2.6.html
as well as PEP 361 http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0361/
While Python 2.6 is backward compatible with earlier versions of
Python, 2.6 has many tools and features that will help you migrate to
Python 3. Wherever possible, Python 3.0 features have been added
without affecting existing code. In other cases, the new features can
be enabled through the use of __future__ imports and command line
switches.
Python 3.0 is currently in release candidate and will be available
later this year. Both Python 2 and Python 3 will be supported for the
foreseeable future.
Source tarballs, Windows installers, and Mac disk images can be
downloaded from the Python 2.6 page: http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.6/
(Please note that due to quirks in the earth's time zones, the Windows
installers will be available shortly.)
Bugs can be reported in the Python bug tracker: http://bugs.python.org
Enjoy,

Cool! I have just downloaded the Mac installer and did
the installation on my Intel MacBook, however it seems I have
some issue with Tkinter:

Wow! This is a very major upgrade with lots of welcome extensions.
I hadn't been following the 2.6 efforts that closely so I am awed.
Congrats!
nneonneoHmm, I was looking forward to trying this out, but the Windows
nneonneoinstall er link
nneonneo( http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.6/python-2.6.msi) is
nneonneopresent ly broken (as is the link for the 64-bit Windows
nneonneoversion ).
We are aware of it. Because of the timing of the release the person who
normally creates the Windows binaries was already asleep. They should be up
a bit later today.

Surely you're joking!
Everybody knows that python developers never sleep :-)
Congratulations for the final release!

Wrong! All my collegues are Java developers and I'm the only one who

Congratulations , by the way.

While I'm at it, I might also point out that http://www.python.org/download/windows/
is quite out-of-date. I don't really think it is worth promoting
version 1.5.2 of Python (even if it is Python CE) if Python 3.0 is
about to come out...

From another page:
"If you wish to report a bug or to suggest an enhancement for the
python.org website, please send an e-mail message to <webmaster at
python dot org>.
If you're reporting a problem (a broken link, typo, formatting glitch),
please include the URL of the affected page. You can copy-and-paste the
URL from the location field of your browser. "
That said, the page begins with
"For many years, Python releases have included an excellent Windows
installer. See the individual releases for details."
whereas the rest is historical info for various platforms.
If 1.5.2 is the latest available for NT on Dec Alpha, why would you want
to erase the info? If the page is up-to-date, this tell anyone with
such a machine to not bother looking for anything newer.
If you are aware of anything out of date in the sense of having been
superceded, do write the webmaster.

Python 2.3.6 is a security bug-fix release. While Python 2.5

people who are still running Python 2.3. Unlike the recently
