Comment on Ubuntu announces 12.10 (Quantal Quetzal) Beta 1parent

Interesting, that's not recommended by python devs. Ubuntu follows the guideline of keeping /usr/bin/python as Python 2 (which will not be installed by default), and /usr/bin/python3 as Python 3.

ETA: Arch Linux actually did this before there was an "official" guideline. http://www.wefearchange.org/2012/04/python-3-on-desktop-for-...

I guess the reason that I like Arch (new software releases quickly) also caused them to beat the official guideline here :)

Thanks for the pointer.
