Thanks everybody for your feedback.
I created a gcode project here:
http://code.google.com/p/pycompat/
This project will be easier if the test suite for a particular
function/class/module is up to par. If you find any gaping holes, you
might file an issue on the tracker.
About testsuites... one issue that you'll run into is that while some stdlib
modules are written with backporting to older versions in mind, their
testsuites are not. For instance, subprocess from python-2.7 runs fine on
python-2.3+. The testsuite for subprocess in python-2.7 makes use of the
with statement, though, so it has to be ported.
Some of the tests will use newer features of unittest as well. These can
of course be run with unittest2 which has been backported to Python 2.4
(although use of the with statements in the tests themselves will have
to be changed still).
All the best,
Michael Foord
