It is really about the fact that pushing a new SymPy release out to an old version of Python risks breaking things that depend on SymPy. If most other things follow SPEC 0 then it is better that SymPy does as well but I'm not sure that is the case.
One suggestion would be to rev the major version number whenever you are going to release a version of SymPy that drops an older version of Python. I'd gather that most projects use SemVer with a version range that stays within a major version, so that'd prevent breakage in projects that are on an older version of Python. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sympy" group.
