Hi, I plan to drop python 2.6 support at this March release.
The Python core team[*1] stopped supporting python 2.6. Some Python libraries started following the same path and trying to support 2.6 becomes painful... For example, most of you already noticed, oslo.config dropped 2.6 support. I tried to work around it with the following commit: https://github.com/osrg/ryu/commit/22501710983fb79a8a337e6bf650821efdc7cf59 But this forces users of decent distributions (e.g Ubuntu 14.04) to upgrade pip (old pip versions can't understand version conditions). Any opinions?
