Jython 2.7.2 released

On behalf of the Jython development team, I am pleased to announce that 
Jython 2.7.2 has been released.

Notable additions include:

  * much improved support for locale, but as a backward-incompatible
    change, it is provided as an opt-in.
  * a main program that behaves more like CPython in many small ways,
    including -i and -E support.
  * a JAR and POM that may be cited as a dependency by other projects
    using Gradle or Maven (experimental).
  * a great many bug-fixes.

For the details see: https://www.jython.org/news and the NEWS link 
there. Convenient download links are at https://www.jython.org/download .

Thanks are due to the many contributors to Jython for making this possible.
