| 8 | Version 3.0a1 - Release Date 31-Aug-2007 |
| 9 | ---------------------------------------- |
| 10 | |
| 11 | - SSL support is disabled. This causes a test_ssl to be skipped. |
| 12 | The new SSL support in the 2.6 trunk (with server-side support and |
| 13 | certificate verification) will be ported for 3.0a2. |
| 14 | |
| 15 | - Platform support is reduced. We've mostly tested on Linux, OSX, |
| 16 | and Windows. |
| 17 | |
| 18 | - There are still some open issues on Windows. |
| 19 | |
| 20 | - Some new features are very fresh, and probably contain bugs: the new |
| 21 | format() method on strings (PEP 3101), the strict separation of |
| 22 | bytes and strings, the new buffer API (PEP 3118). |

| 24 | - IDLE still has some open issues. If you can't run it at all, try |
| 25 | "idle -n" which disables the separate subprocess for the |
| 26 | interpreter. |
