 * fedora uses 2.7.1
 * toolserver uses 2.7.1 but patched to have unicode bug fixed
 * ubuntu uses 2.7.1+ (not sure what the "+" stands for, look e.g. here)

I think the day we can go officially to 2.7.2 will become a "delightful holiday", but meanwhile this is slightly more radical than useful. The 2.7.1 seems to be a magic and commonly used one. --DrTrigon (talk) 12:37, 29 February 2012 (UTC)

"Not supported does not necessarily mean we have to actively remove bits that work around quirks for a certain version; rather, it means we won't fix bugs due to an old python version." - I would agree with that, since we should not waste time in something that might become contra-productive for some users. --DrTrigon (talk) 12:59, 29 February 2012 (UTC)
