The changes in this release are as follows:
This release combines a select set of language and  standard library
improvements with a substantial speed  boost. Typical Python code
runs 15 to 35 percent faster  than it did in 2.2. This version also
adds boolean and  set data types, a source file encoding indicator,
zipped  code archives, package meta data, extended date/time 
processing, a logging module, and improved support for  several
operating systems, including Mac OS X. 

Project description:
Python is an interpreted, interactive, object-oriented programming
language. It combines remarkable power with very clear syntax, and
isn't difficult to learn. It has modules, classes, exceptions, very
high level data types, and dynamic typing. There are interfaces to
many system calls and libraries, as well as to various windowing
systems (Tk, Mac, MFC, GTK+, Qt, wxWindows). Newbuilt-in modules are
easily written in C or C++. Python is also usable as an extension
language for applications that need a programmable interface.
