They're up. I included one for Python 2.4 put stuck 'unsupported'
at the end of its filename.

I'm wondering if we should make a couple for Python 3.1 and 3.2
but clearly mark them as alpha quality? Perhaps a little branch
on github just to change the version to 1.57a and edit the setup.py
description?

Speaking of which, I found our first bug: I didn't add do2to3.py
to the manifest, so it isn't included in the tar ball or zip. This
means you can't install from a source release under Python 3.
Not a big issue as we haven't claimed to support Python 3 yet:
