Frank Wierzbicki: Jython 2.7.2b2 released!

On behalf of the Jython development team, I'm pleased to announce that the second beta release of Jython 2.7.2 is available! This is a bugfix release.

Please see the NEWS file for detailed release notes. This release of Jython requires JDK 8 or above.

This release is being hosted at maven central. There are four main distributions (including a new "slim" version). In order of popularity:

• Most likely, you want the traditional installer. NOTE: the installer automatically installs pip and setuptools (unless you uncheck that option), but you must unset JYTHON_HOME if you have it set. See the installation instructions for using the installer
• A pre-built standalone version. See the installation instructions for details about standalone mode
• A source only distribution
• A slim version

To see all of the files available including checksums, go to the maven query for org.python+Jython and navigate to the appropriate distribution and version.
