AFAIC you can release exactly what's in the release21-maint branch now -- only update the README and LICENSE file. Fred made some checkins to the docs, I'm not sure if that means he wants to make a 2.1.3 doc release too (personally, I'm against spending more time on it than absolutely necessary). There's one issue: I'd rather not see Tim waste time on recreating the Windows setup he used for the 2.1.2 installer. Maybe this can be a source-only release? That's good enough for Zope (while Zope technically supports Windows, nobody uses it this way, certainly not the people who are likely to be bit by the above problem). --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/)
