Re: [Py4j-users] New intermediate release of Py4J

[Barthelemy D. <ba...@cs...>]

Hi,

The version number is still 0.7 because this is just a temporary build and it is only available through github (but it's the same kind of file that is available on sourceforge and you can download it by clicking on the "raw" button). The final release will be 0.8 and will be available on pypi and sourceforge.
