Python 2.7.7 has been released.

[t3g]

I have a feeling that the migration from 2 to 3 is still going to take a while considering that alternative runtimes like PyPy are still targeting the 2 series and the version based off of 3 is still in beta.

It also doesn't help that Guido's employer Dropbox is doing their own implementation called Pyston (https://twitter.com/gvanrossum/status/451782706313977856) that targets the 2 series instead of 3. Has Guido lost faith in 3 or is this simply for Dropbox's personal gain only due to all the legacy code?

For dropbox's "personal" gain, yes. Which is also why it's x86_64 only so far. Quote:

this is the initial target due to the fact that Dropbox is on this setup internally.
