Hi all,
To wrap a bow on this: on reviewing data from PyPI, it looks like a
significant percentage of Paramiko users are on 2.6. There's currently an
outstanding PR to port paramiko to use cryptography, and IMO that's more
important than dropping 2.6 for overall user security, so I'm going to drop

Sounds good to me but would it not make more sense to remove 2.6 from our
Travis config and instead retain the CentOS / 2.6 builder in Jenkins given
that it's the only real place where 2.6 is being used?
