As we are unable to catch up with the Python 3.x line, which isn't exactly the bleeding edge either as it's 5 years old already, I would say we should focus our efforts to be able to make that move before spending effort on compatibility with older versions. Dropping Python 2.6 support and ensuring compat with latest 2.7 is actually making efforts to support 3.x if you understand properly latest 2.7 releases policies.

For example: in September 2013 the available virtual debian image came with python 2.6 camptocamp for example uses a specially compiled python version for the OpenERP server to avoid python conflicts with the distributed python version. with this setup strategy one is on the save side. just my 2¢ Hi all, In a merge proposal for 7.0. came up the question of what Python versions should the code be compatible with. In particular, a dictionay comprehension is used the, available in Python 2.7 but not compatible with Python 2.6. For reference, the MP is: https://code.launchpad.net/~dreis-pt/project-service/7.0-issue_task-dr/+merge/195985 So, the question here is: Regarding OCA reviewed modules, should the code targeting OpenERP >= 7.0 be made to keep Python 2.6 compatibility?
