Python 3000 Alpha 1 Avaiable!

Python 3, or as the community likes to call it “Python 3000”, its a long-time topic for discussion and development. After so many discussion, we can finally get some real experience with the first alpha release of Python 3000 now available for download.

Although the final version its only schedule for middle 2008, this current release can be a great place to see some of the low changes made to the language.

Because of so many changes, the code its not compatible with 2.x releases, and if you want to enjoy the new releases, you can start porting your code.

You can find more information in:

• What’s New in Python 3000: An article with the new features and some comparison to the 2.x line of releases.
• Guido’s Python 3000 presentation rehearsal: This is a “old” hour long presentation from Guido in front of his co-workers at Google.
