Hmm. Who wrote this page, and why? I would hope that a PEP has more official status than a wiki page. > Martin> Please also add code that makes the build break in a version > Martin> where the code is still in place, so that users can know that > Martin> support for their platform is to be removed (in 3.0, I presume). > > How do I do that? Does that go in the Python 2.6 code? If you want to unsupport the system in 2.6, yes. You put something in configure.in which users can't fail to notice, e.g. a single-line abort that they need to uncomment before they can proceed. See earlier Python releases for how this was done (I would have to dig myself to find out what releases and what systems).
