Python 3.0.1
Python 3.0 is end-of-lifed with the release of Python 3.1. All users of Python 3.0 should upgrade to Python 3.1.
Python 3.0.1 was released on February 13, 2009. It was a bugfix release of Python 3.0.
This is the first bugfix release of Python 3.0. Python 3.0 is now in bugfix-only mode; no new features are being added. Dozens of bugs that were reported since the release of 3.0 final have been fixed.
Python 3.0 (a.k.a. "Python 3000" or "Py3k") is a new version of the language that is incompatible with the 2.x line of releases. The language is mostly the same, but many details, especially how built-in objects like dictionaries and strings work, have changed considerably, and a lot of deprecated features have finally been removed. Also, the standard library has been reorganized in a few prominent places.
