 From the release notes:

 Python 2.7.2 was released on June 11th, 2011.

 The Python 2.7 series is scheduled to be the last major version in the 2.x
 series before 2.x moves into an extended maintenance period. The 2.7
 series contains many of the features that were first released in Python
 3.1. Improvements in this release include:

     * An ordered dictionary type
     * New unittest features including test skipping, new assert methods,
 and test discovery
     * A much faster io module
     * Automatic numbering of fields in the str.format() method
     * Float repr improvements backported from 3.x
     * Tile support for Tkinter
     * A backport of the memoryview object from 3.x
     * Set literals
     * Set and dictionary comprehensions
     * Dictionary views
     * New syntax for nested with statements
     * The sysconfig module

 List of spkg that will need an artificial bump (or a real one) for upgrade
 to go smoothly (feel free to amend if I forgot something):
  1. cvxopt
  1. cython
  1. docutils
  1. gdmodule
  1. ipython
  1. jinja2
  1. matplotlib
  1. mercurial
  1. moin
  1. mpmath
  1. networkx
  1. numpy
  1. pexpect
  1. pil
  1. polybori?
  1. pycrypto
  1. pygments
  1. pynac
  1. python_gnutls
  1. r (because rpy is contained inside) (until #9906 gets merged)
  1. sagenb
  1. sagetex
  1. scipy
  1. setuptools
  1. sphinx
  1. sqlalchemy
  1. sympy
  1. twisted

 Updated the first patch. Haven't been able to test things to find any new
 problems yet.
