Two things. First, it didn't ask me for systype as the documentation suggests it's supposed to. No problem. I can sort that out on my own, but it would be nice if the docs were correct. Second, python 2.5.1. Any plans to bring over Jeff Sickel's 2.7.5? I can give it a go, if no one else is working on it, but I know it requires significant changes to APE. It's needed for codereview, IIRC. Also, what's the mercurial version? It says version unknown. It'd be good to have mercurial 2.6.2 for go compiler and stdlib dev, which is what I meant when I said go dev. Thanks!
