Since the Python development team tries hard to maintain backwards compatibility, the vast majority of Python packages will automatically support the newest release of Python in that they will work just dandy. Developers don't really have plans to do that kind of support since it just happens. If you mean something else by "support" (like making use of new language or standard library features), then what do you mean? I would suggest, in order: 1) Look on the relevant mailing list for people talking about using ZODB with Python 2.5. 2) Just try it. Install Python 2.5 alongside 2.4, install ZODB, run the test suite. -- Robert Kern "I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth." -- Umberto Eco -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
