John: simplejson will provide support for Python 2.5 and does ship one shared object /usr/lib/python2.4/vendor-packages/simplejson/_speedups.so. A 64-bit version of this library will be provided.
I will be working with the Desktop Release Engineering team to ensure that this work is done. In talking with Laca from the RE team, he said that the changes are minor and he plans to provide the Desktop team with instructions how to do this over the next week.
