Abstract
|
||
========
|
||
|
||
This document describes the development and release schedule for
|
||
Python 3.4. The schedule primarily concerns itself with PEP-sized
|
||
items.
|
||
|
||
.. Small features may be added up to the first beta
|
||
release. Bugs may be fixed until the final release,
|
||
which is planned for March 2014.
