As you know from the pull request discussion, big +1 from me too. I'm
also of the opinion with David C. and Brad that dropping 2.5 support
would be a good thing too, as there's a lot of g
Point well taken. It is always a tradeoff / balancing act where you can
have 'anything' but not 'everything'. Where would the fun be if we could
have everything :) ? . In our situation, there were a couple of
extensions that did not work (at least out of the box) in Python 2.7.

So when upgrading everything you prefer to keep the bugs in 2.6 that were
squashed in 2.7? Who has taught IT managers that older and more buggy versions
of software are more "professional" and better for corporate environments?

For what is worth, we are just moving forward from Python 2.2 / Numeric
and are going to 2.6 and it has been rather painful because of the
several little details of extensions and other subtleties. I believe we
will settle there for a while. For companies like ours, it is a big
pro

Targeting >= 2.6 would be preferable to me. Several other packages including
IPython, support only Python >= 2.6, >= 3.2.
This change would help me from accidentally writing Python syntax which is
allowable in 2.6 & 2.7 (but not in 2.4 or 2.5).
Compiling a newer Python interpreter isn't very h
Yes, and ditto for SciPy.
With dropped 2.4 support we can also use the new memoryview syntax instead of
ndarray syntax in Cython. That is more important for SciPy, but it has some
relevance for NumPy too.

I am ok if 1.7 is the LTS. I would even go as far as dropping 2.5 as
well then (RHEL 6 uses python 2.6).

+1, especially if this is for 1.8. What is the plan for when it will
be released? It is 1.7 that will be the long term supported version?

+1, if someone wants to use an older version of Python they can use an
older version of numpy.

As a point of reference, python 2.4 is on RH5/CentOS5. While RH6 is the
current version, there are still enterprises that are using version 5. Of
course, at this point, one really should be working on a migration plan and
shouldn't be doing new development on those machines...
