2.6b3 Windows installers

The download page doesn't list any Windows installer for 2.6b3:

http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.6/

I suppose this is due to Martin building the installers and him not
be available at the moment.

Since Python on Windows will likely only get very few beta testers
without a Windows installer build, I'd suggest to postpone the
RC1 release that's planned for tomorrow to get more feedback for the
Windows builds.

I'd rather still release the rc tomorrow.

Even with 41 release blockers, are you still planning a release tomorrow?

I guess there's nothing wrong with that; the more testing the better!
2.6 and 3.0 are also pretty stable; we're just ironing out a few of
the rough spots. :)

I hope to start going through the blockers tonight. We'll see!
