i have a little question. Is there a chance to not drop Python2.4 Support for ZTK1.1? I ask because Redhat Enterprise Linux 5 is shipped with Python2.4, and should have been supported for some years from now.
At this point, the burden of keeping 2.4 compatibility is too high for ongoing development.
I agree. We have to support Python 2.5, 2.6 and 2.7 already. There is also a desire to use newer releases, since they get us closer to Python 3.
To me, the driving factor is that Python 2.4 is no-longer supported by the Python developers. Jim -- Jim Fulton
