Guido van Rossum: Python 2.0.1c1 – GPL-compatible release candidate

Guido van Rossum writes: “With a sigh of relief I announce
Python 2.0.1c1 — the first Python release in a long time whose
license is fully compatible with the GPL.

I thank Moshe Zadka who did almost all of the work to make this
a useful bugfix release, and then went incommunicado for several
weeks. (I hope you’re OK, Moshe!)

Note that this is a release candidate. We don’t expect any
problems, but we’re being careful nevertheless. We’re planning to
do the final release of 2.0.1 a week from now; expect it to be
identical to the release candidate except for some dotted i’s and
crossed t’s.”
