While I agree it should be dropped, I was discussing this with the Twisted guys. They pointed out that it will actually receive security updates through 2013. This is thanks to Ubuntu 8.10 LTS. I'm sure Canonical could tap into someone like Barry to fix it if serious enough.-- Sent from my HP Touch

Wasn't the reason why Django 1.4 should still support Python 2.5 because of RHEL 5? If so, RHEL 5 never had official Python 2.5 support but only supported Python 2.4. RHEL 6 does not support 2.5 either, its Python version is 2.6. What is the reason that Django 1.4 needs to support Python 2.5?

+1 I thought there was an implicit understanding that only 3 versions of Python would be supported at any given time. If so it makes sense to drop support for 2.4 when we add 3.x. On Sat, Dec 10, 2011 at 9:22 AM, Jannis Leidel wrote: > > I propose that we attempt to merge the py3k work after
