Hello all,

Because the python26 package has been added to EPEL 5, and because IUS relies 
on EPEL for dependencies, we have EOL'd python26 from our repositories.  As the 
EPEL version is newer, all boxes 'auto updating' should already be running the 
EPEL version without any issues.  Additionally, we will be working with the 
EPEL maintainers of all of the python26-xxxxx sub-packages to get the packages 
maintained in EPEL along with the python26 base package.  That said, if the 
maintainers do not wish to maintain the packages we will in order to move them 
from IUS to EPEL.

That said, anyone interested in supporting these efforts are welcome to take 
the IUS python26-xxxxx packages and 'fix them up' for Fedora EPEL and become 
the maintainer in the Fedora community.  Please let us know if anyone would 
like more info on that.  You can send an email to this list, or 
[email protected].

As always, thank you using and supporting the IUS Community Project.
