python.org; this contains the "full scoop" of changes to
Python since the previous release for this version of Python.

+ If this is the first release in a series (e.g. 2.2.1c1) then
+ you'll need to create a new directory (e.g. 2.2.1). It's
+ probably best to copy the last directory across:
+
+ % cp -r 2.2 2.2.1
+ % rm -rf 2.2.1/CVS
+ % cvs add 2.2.1
+
+ and then make changes as needed. Verbiage from prereleases of
+ previous versions can be found in CVS if you're feeling uninspired.

___ Also, update the MD5 checksums.
