[ANN] bzr 2.3.3 released !

[David Muir]

That's why there's a "gold" announcement a week prior to the release
announcement. It's supposed to give enough time to get the downloads
ready in time for the release announcement.

I'm using the PPA, so I got upgraded several days ago, so the system
seems to be working well there. And the OSX download is available on LP,
but yeah, I don't see the Windows package.

Also noticed that the Bazaar page says "bzr 2.3. released" instead of 2.3.3.

Cheers,
David
