We are pleased to announce the release of Python 2.4.4 (FINAL), a
bugfix release of Python 2.4, on October 18, 2006.
Important: 2.4.4 includes a security fix (PSF-2006-001) for the
repr() of unicode strings in wide unicode builds (UCS-4) [does not
affect pkgsrc]
Python 2.4 is now in bugfix-only mode; no new features are being
added. At least 80 bugs have been squished since Python 2.4.3,
including a number of bugs and potential bugs found by with the
Coverity and Klocwork static analysis tools. We'd like to offer
our thanks to both these firms for making this available for open
source projects - see their websites if you're interested.
