I don't know why. It's been there quite a while, and had non-trivial
support for inclusion in 2.0. A chance to consider the backlog of patches
as a stable whole is why the two weeks between "feature freeze" and 2.0b1
exists!

I doubt any variant of Stackless has a real shot for 2.0 at this point,
although if a patch shows up before Sunday ends I won't Postpone it without
reason (like, say, Guido tells me to).

I agree, but yaaaawn <wink>. CVS says it was last modified before Jeremy
went on vacation. It's not up to date. The designated release manager in
Jeremy's absence apparently didn't touch it. I can't gripe about that,
though, because he's my boss <wink>. He sent me email today saying "tag,
now you're it!" (Guido will be gone all next week). My plate is already
full, though, and I won't get around to updating it today.
Yes, this is no way to run a release, and so I don't have any confidence
that the release dates in pep200 will be met. Still, I was arguing for
feature freeze two months ago, and so as long as "I'm it" I'm not inclined
to slip the schedule on *that* part. I bet it will be at least 3 weeks
before 2.0b1 hits the streets, though.
