Martin> And if *2.6* becomes the last of the 2.x series? With all due respect, I don't think you can make that decision now. The time to have stated 2.6 would be the end of the 2.x line was when 2.6 was released. At that point instead of opening up the trunk for changes you would have closed it off or merged the py3k branch to trunk. 2.6.0 was released over a year ago and there has been no effort to suppress bug fix or feature additions to trunk since then. If you call 2.6 "the end of 2.x" you'll have wasted a year of work on 2.7 with about a month to go before the first 2.7 alpha release.
If you want to accelerate release of 2.7 (fewer alphas, compressed schedule, etc) that's fine, but I don't think you can turn back the clock at this point and decree that 2.7 is dead.
