Seems a lot simpler.
Because nobody wants to keep maintaining really old versions. AFAIK Python only do bugfix releases for the latest 2 releases (with the exception of the new Python 3 major version, in this case I think more release are maintained). If you keep using an old Python version, you will never get a bugfix. -- Leandro Lucarella (AKA luca) http://llucax.com.ar/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- GPG Key: 5F5A8D05 (F8CD F9A7 BF00 5431 4145 104C 949E BFB6 5F5A 8D05) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Me encanta el éxito; por eso prefiero el estado de progreso constante, con la meta al frente y no atrás. -- Ricardo Vaporeso.
