[PySide] Python for Qt version 1.0.0~beta4 "I have altered the deal" released

I can't see this post on planet.python.org and can't resist to share the good news about new PySide release.

The PySide team is happy to announce the fourth beta release of PySide:
Python for Qt. New versions of some of the PySide toolchain components
apiextractor, generatorrunner, shiboken, libpyside, pyside-tools have been
released as well.

Like the others, this is a source code release only; we hope our community
packagers will be providing provide binary packages shortly. To acquire the
source code packages, refer to our download wiki page [1] or pull the relevant
tagged versions from our git repositories [2].

Major changes since 1.0.0~beta3
===============================

This is a bug fix release. Since beta3, a total of 47 high-priority
bugs have been fixed. See the list of fixed bugs at the end of this message.

Path towards 1.0 release
========================

There are still some outstanding bugs in our Bugzilla [3]. To have these
fixed, we plan to do other beta in two weeks. The beta cycle will continue
until we have all P2 bugs fixed.


About PySide
============

PySide is the Nokia-sponsored Python Qt bindings project, providing
access to not only the complete Qt 4.7 framework but also Qt Mobility,
as well as to generator tools for rapidly generating bindings for any
Qt-based libraries.

The PySide project is developed in the open, with all facilities you'd
expect from any modern OSS project such as all code in a git repository
[2], an open Bugzilla [5] for reporting bugs, and an open design
process [4]. We welcome any contribution without requiring a transfer of
copyright.
