there might be ssl-related surprises, as https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-279/ says:
- The entirety of Python 3.4's ssl module <https://docs.python.org/3/library/ssl.html> has been backported for Python 2.7.9. See PEP 466 <https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0466/> for justification. - HTTPS certificate validation using the system's certificate store is now enabled by default. See PEP 476 <https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0476/> for details. - SSLv3 has been disabled by default in httplib and its reverse dependencies due to the POODLE attack <https://www.imperialviolet.org/2014/10/14/poodle.html>. - The ensurepip module <https://docs.python.org/2/library/ensurepip.html> module has been backported, which provides the pip package manager in every Python 2.7 installation. See PEP 477 <https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0477/> . On the other hand it looks like pip has been incorporated into Python proper. (https://docs.python.org/2/library/ensurepip.html is in 2.7.9) Does it mean that the pip spkg could be removed?
