I understand both the importance of stability and the need for a security
audit at some point. (I do wish we had the funds or I had the time to
help move it forward, but I don't.) I also understand the need for a
consistent framework for reporting and resolving bugs. It is reasonabl

Aside from a "security audit" what problems have been reported using
Python 2.4.X? Those of use who run Python 2.4.X do it becasue we want
access to the language features and performance. If there are stability
issues attributed to that choice, we'd like to know what they are.

Because someone has to spend considerable time to assess impacts on

Why does Zope lag the release of Python by so very long?
The Python 2.4.X series includes language features and poerformance
enhancements which ought to be available in Zope. For the most part,
Python 2.3.5 is a subset of Python 2.4.X. Compatibility is a language and

Good point-- this is why I had compiled 2.8.2 erroneously with Python

It's a DeprecationWarning. All it means is that Python's `whrandom`

applications to switch to using the `random` module if they want
