気になったので調べてみたんですけど、公式(?)に具体的なリリーススケジュールが
示されたのが PEP 316 のようですが

See PEP 361 for release details: http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0361/

それ以前のαリリースのドキュメントを見ても


### 3.0a1
Release Schedule
----------------

The release plan is to have a series of alpha releases in 2007, beta
releases in 2008, and a final release in August 2008.  The alpha
releases are primarily aimed at developers who want a sneak peek at
the new langauge, especially those folks who plan to port their code
to Python 3000.  The hope is that by the time of the final release,
many 3rd party packages will already be available in a 3.0-compatible
form.

### 3.0a2
Release Schedule
----------------

The release plan is to have a series of alpha releases in 2007, beta
releases in 2008, and a final release in August 2008.  The alpha
releases are primarily aimed at developers who want a sneak peek at
the new langauge, especially those folks who plan to port their code
to Python 3000.  The hope is that by the time of the final release,
many 3rd party packages will already be available in a 3.0-compatible
form.

### 3.0a3
Release Schedule
----------------

The release plan is to have a series of alpha releases in 2007, beta

で、final release の時期はAugust 2008 で動いていてません。
もっとも PEPのほうの記述だと

Jul 02 2008: Python 2.6b2 and 3.0b2 planned
Aug 06 2008: Python 2.6rc1 and 3.0rc1 planned
Aug 20 2008: Python 2.6rc2 and 3.0rc2 planned
Sep 03 2008: Python 2.6 and 3.0 final

となっているので、微妙に遅れがあるといえばありますか。

いずれにしろ「(βが)リリースされてるはずだったのに」とかぶーたれるのは
外野のせりふとしてはいかがなものかと。
