Hi,

Do we have a policy with respect to the Python versions we support?
On the public testoob website, it says testoob runs with Python 2.2,
2.3, and 2.4,
but in reality, we test with Python 2.4, 2.5 and 2.6. (And what about
3.0 in
the future).
I quickly ran testoob with Python 2.2.3, and it didn't work as we have
it now.

Hi Ronnie,

Good catch, thanks!
I committed a 2.3 and 2.2-breaking change a while ago but didn't catch it.

Fixed and pushed to trunk.

When I work on Linux I test with versions 2.2+2.3+2.4+2.5+2.6 (using "make testall").
On windows I test on 2.4+2.5+2.6, but not as religiously - maybe its just much easier to write makefiles+shell scripts than it is Windows batch files, I dunno.

Regardless, I was thinking about stopping support for 2.2 and 2.3 - they aren't as popular today, although I did find Python 2.2 in the wild (installed on VMware ESX), but it isn't going to happen implicitly.
