I don't think we have thought up an official policy, though I think
Python >= 2.4. is likely a good baseline, and requiring 2.6 is
definately a little too early imo.

I looked at the commit referenced, and from what i saw those are just
list comprehensions (pep-0202) which have been around since 2.0 (?)
Is there another change which requires 2.6 or am I just missing
something?

Thanks,

Paul

For Linode's case, 2.6 is nice because it comes with json in the  
standard library. For the baseline, I'd suggest 2.4 as well; Linode's  
driver will not work without some kind of JSON parsing environment (it  
checks for 'json' and 'simplejson'), and simplejson is compatible with  
2.4+.

Regards,
Jed

I'd suggest 2.5, since we have been using ElementTree for all XML
parsing and hashlib in a few places. We could shoot for 2.4, but it
would require a lot of rewriting.
