Hey all,<br>
<br>
I would like to propose that after Twisted 10.1 is released, we cease to<br>
claim support for Python 2.4 on any version of Windows. This seems<br>
reasonable to me considering that Python 2.5 was first released in<br>
September of 2006 and that either Windows Python installations can be<br>
upgraded easily or very likely no upgrades are possible at all<br>
(specifically, no upgrades of Twisted).<br>
<br>
The motivation for this is that we do not have the hardware resources to<br>
continue to test Twisted on Python 2.4 on Windows, particularly<br>
considering we will shortly want to begin testing on Python 2.7 on<br>
Windows. If Windows/Python 2.4 support is important enough to anyone<br>
that they can offer to host the build slaves necessary to continue<br>
testing, then I'll withdraw the suggestion.<br>
<br>
Lastly, I am not proposing dropping Python 2.4 support on any other<br>
platform (ie, Debian and Fedora).<br>
<br>
