is 2.4.3 final?

[John Salerno]

I just noticed on one page of the Python website that it said:

"We are pleased to announce the release of Python 2.4.3 (final), a
bugfix release of Python 2.4, on March 29, 2006."

Yet elsewhere it refers to it as a "release candidate" and still refers
to 2.4.2 as the "current production version".

I believe today was the target date for this. Given that there have been
no mentions of problems either here or on py-dev, I would expect it to have
appeared.

You seem to have caught the site in an inconsistent state. Perhaps you
could revisit in a day and if problems continue, email the web maintainers
(link on sidebar) with the cut and pasted urls of offending pages.

Thanks. I'll wait a few days before installing, just to be sure.
