i was hoping to have at least a nod of compatibility to python 2.3, as its still the standard install on a lot of systems, at least with regards to the core SA functionality being available. if you are contributing an extension module that is optional to the library's functioning, that is more reasonable to be 2.4-required, since it wont get in the way of an initial user experience (which is something Im trying to preserve).

if youre patching the core, then if you provide something like decorators, just provide a compatible 2.3 function. as for library functions, try to import things that dont need an import in 2.4 (like sets), use the "threadlocal" object in util if not in 2.4, etc.

sorry to be difficult !

What's the python version required for SQLAlchemy itself?
If I provide patches/refactorings, can I assume python 2.4?
