Building a complete compatible codebase was a major undertaking for ogrisel. Since the PR is somewhat old, a lot of his effort might be wasted.
I am really in favour of doing small steps and think it suits our development philosophy somewhat better. Btw, I think we still support lucid, which is 10.04! Moving to 12.04 might leave many people behind and I think we should not make this step lightly. If it helps us a lot in the 3.x compatibility, then we should vote on dropping 2.6 I guess.
