Hello everyone,

in the last weeks we have made the translator python3 compatible. This
means you can now run it with Python 2.6, 2.7 and 3.x. However, during
testing we found that Python 2.7 and 3.x translate tasks drastically
faster than Python 2.6 (sometimes by a factor of 7). We are therefore
not only discouraging everyone from using Python 2.6, but by default the
translator will not even run under python 2.6. If you really must use
Python 2.6 you can pass the --force-old-python flag to the translator.

Cheers,
Jendrik
