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,
- -Barry
