Given that I have even recently received emails from people thanking me for making binaries available for quite old Mac versions with only Python 2 available, it would be good to continue (for now) to only require relatively low versions of Python (2.6+ or something?) for *building*, just as the gcc one has doesn't have to be bleeding edge as long as it can build Sage's gcc. Non-developers are inherently conservative when it comes to upgrading equipment - especially if they have to pay for it themselves, which many do outside the R1 world.
As for the *running* Python, as long as it isn't so new that it misses the point of the recent hard work of getting as many system packages to be used as possible, then it seems not so relevant. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
