Exactly.
Do we have any figures about how many people are still using SymPy with 2.6?
There were some Android issues last time dropping 2.6 came up, IIRC.

Question is: Does that improve any of the success factors for SymPy?
I see two: User adoption and developer attraction.

User adoption would benefit from speed and reliability. I can't judge whether the newly available features would help with that, or whether that would make enough of a difference to be user-noticeable.

Developer attraction: Do we have any reactions on the line of "ugh... 2.6... no thanks"?
