Yes you are right - I've checked on my home machine, and it is indeed 2.6. Still, no Python 3 unless I upgrade to Fedora 13, and upgrading an OS in order to get the latest version of one package is a bit much! I know that this is a distribution issue, and not strictly a Python one, but the issue exists primarily because python is such a successful language it has become deeply embedded in linux distributions, and so there is now a lot of work involved in checking that a python upgrade doesn't break things. Some solution involving virtualenv is perhaps a possibility. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
