&gt; few hours (during which time I will draft the release announcement and<br>
&gt; have dinner), and prior to the push to PyPI:<br>

</span>Update to PyPI done:<br>

<br>
Interestingly this seem to insist on rebuilding the tar-ball, which<br>
means the tar ball now up on PyPI has a different md5sum:<br>
<br>
d3f4c14e5cba3dfd354d0e0013bc350f  dist/biopython-1.66.tar.gz<br>
<br>
I presume this is down to containing different date stamp(s).<br>
<br>
If we start to advertise the expected md5 checksums in future, this may<br>
mean revising our release process slightly... not that I have followed<br>
<a href="http://biopython.org/wiki/Building_a_release" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://biopython.org/wiki/Building_a_release</a> exactly by delaying the<br>
PyPI release until I&#39;d had a third party confirm the downloads looked<br>
fine.<br>
