Default Python 2.7
Is there any plan to move python to 2.7 for the 8.2/9.0 releases? From looking (and running locally) it appears "feature safe", being similar to how 2.6 was done. i.e. that 2.6 was the same as 2.5 with backported 3.0 features, while 2.7 is thus 2.6 with backported 3.1 features. Additionally, (and I have already had to discuss this with one python based project's upstream) you may want to consider creating symlinks from the default python to `python2`. Some linux distros are starting to move to python3 and projects are hardcoding `python2` to compensate.

FreeBSD Port: python27-2.7.0_1
Hello, I am using FreeBSD 8.1 and I would like to know the reasons why it has been decided that the default Python installation is 2.6 and not 2.7.
