Since the release candidate 2 weeks ago, there have been 2 changes: 1. pyexpat.__version__ has be changed to be the Python version. 2. A regression from 3.1.3 in the handling of comments in the netrc module has been resolved. (see issue #12009). 2.7.2 is the second in bugfix release for the Python 2.7 series. 2.7 is the last major verison of the 2.x line and will be receiving only bug fixes while new feature development focuses on 3.x. The 2.7 series includes many features that were first released in Python 3.1. The faster io module, the new nested with statement syntax, improved float repr, set literals, dictionary views, and the memoryview object have been backported from 3.1. Other features include an ordered dictionary implementation, unittests improvements, a new sysconfig module, auto-numbering of fields in the str/unicode format method, and support for ttk Tile in Tkinter. For a more extensive list of changes in 2.7, see http://doc.python.org/dev/whatsnew/2.7.html or Misc/NEWS in the Python distribution.
