Python(x, y) 2.7.3.0 Released!

Hi All,

We are happy to announce that Python(x, y) 2.7.3.0 is available for immediate download. Almost all plugins were updated as well several new ones were added. The most notable are:

• The long awaited update of IPython to v0.13.1 (with ipdb extension).
• ITK/VTK (with VTKGlue restored).
• The Enthought Tool Suite (with enaml).
• Numpy.
• SciPy.
• and many scikits* packages.

As always all packages come as feature complete as possible with up to date documentation, examples and bug fixes.

The next major milestone is the much requested 64-bit support based on Python v2.7.3. Although Python v3.3.0 is promising, too many must have packages are not available for it (Scipy).

Please head over to the download page for download links. There is no update available as the Python distribution was updated.
