release.

Nice work. Thanks.

Source tarballs and Windows installers can be downloaded from the  
Python 2.6.1 page

I note that OS X installers have not been released (yet). I don't know
if you plan to, but I think it is important to release installers that
do not suffer from the bug http://bugs.python.org/issue4017 which
renders Tkinter unusable in the 2.6.0 release and which (I believe) is
a build issue. Can we expect such an updated release?

Many thanks,

Muhammad Alkarouri
