Hello Jonathan

do you mean 2.6 or later, or specifically 2.6? 

For your info if it would help any: I am running the python version that 
came bundled with the web2py version 
2.5.1-stable+timestamp.2013.06.06.15.39.19<http://web2py.com/init/default/download>
 and 
the application is deployed on a rackspace VPS node
