Hi all,

I've got a test build currently in progress and I thought I'd fill you 
in on a few of the less obvious details in the build, related to the 
build itself.

* Thanks to some research and scripting done by Kevin Ollivier the 
builds for OS X are now all Universal binaries, and will work on both OS 
X 10.3.9 and 10.4.x, and binaries will be available for Apple's Python 
2.3 as well as user-installed Python 2.4 and 2.5.

* A build has been added for Debian 4.0 (Etch), and also Fedora Core 7.

* The Ubuntu/Debian packages will support multiple versions of Python at 
the same time if the distribution has the python-central package and if 
`pyversions -s` returns more than one version.  This means that the 
packages for both edgy and feisty will support both Python 2.4 and 
Python 2.5.  Debian Etch has python-central and both Python 2.4 and 2.5 
packages available, but for some reason pyversions says that only Python 
2.4 is supported so that is all that is in that wxPython package.  Oh 
well, their loss I guess.
