Giulio, are you speaking for Red Hat here, or is this just your opinion? And have you actually tried to doing what you propose?

[openstack-dev] [Tempest] Drop python 2.6 support
Hi all, I saw that Tempest will drop python 2.6 support in design summit https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/icehouse-summit-qa-parallel. Drop tempest python 2.6 support:Remove all nose hacks in the codeDelete nose, use unittest2 with testr/testtools and everything *should* just work (tm) Does that mean Tempest could not run on python 2.6 in the future? -- Regards, Zhi Kun Liu ___ OpenStack-dev mailing list OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
