Am I the only one saddened by this announcement? I mean, it could have been something like """ "VOOM"?!? Mate, 2.7 wouldn't "voom" if you put four million volts through it! It's bleedin' demised! It's not pinin'! It's passed on! This 2.x series is no more! It has ceased to be! It's expired and gone to meet its maker! It's a stiff! Bereft of life, it rests in peace! If you hadn't nailed it to your dependencies it'd be pushing up the daisies! Its metabolic processes are now 'istory! It's off the twig! It's kicked the bucket, it's shuffled off its mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleedin' choir invisible!! THIS IS AN EX-VERSION!!
