As much as I like killing support for Python 2.6 and below, RHEL is usually the blocker. They still have 2.4 under support. Only the RHEL that was released a few weeks ago finally has 2.7.

This version has been around since 2010, and afaiu, is available on all modern platforms. Is there any reason not to change minimum required version of Python to 2.7?
