2.7 & 2.6 are similar enough, I don't see any reason to create both if its
not trivial...

Where I work, we have several old virtual machines (some are build
machines, others used mostly for continuous integrations and so forth) that
run Ubuntu 10.x, where the default python version is 2.6.
Nobody wants to upgrade them since it's a hassle, and when we want to write
code that will run on these machines as well, we have to use 2.6 syntax.
I think that this is a pretty common situation in tech firms that have been
around for a while.

It's not a big deal, but is never an issue - since everything supports
python 2.6 :)
In our day-to-day, this usually means replacing dictionary comprehensions
with dict( list comprehension).

I think Pythonect can run on 2.6 "AS IT IS", the only problem is that
setup.py is using 'setuptools' which is the default for 2.7 module (while
'distutils' is the default for 2.6 and below).
I will open a "feature request" ticket on Supporting Python 2.6
