The 0.8.1 release hiatus appears to be over (hooray!), but maintaining two release branches may be a bridge too far. In any case, there is a trade off to be made with consideration of how much benefit proposed features get from Python 2.4; there is no point in frustrating the developers who contribute so much to please a dwindling number of users on old platforms. I'm happy to leave it in the hands of you developers since you are considering to the lag between Python releases and operating system distributions.
