I'd say that *support* for Python 2.4 may be dropped, not |
3 |
`dev-lang/python:2.4` itself. Mask it and declare "unsupported". When it |
4 |
breaks itself (couldn't be compiled and no-one cares to write a patch), |
5 |
drop it. There're Gentoo users writing in Python for old RedHat, which |
6 |
would be supported till Py4k is out, so why drop what hasn't been broken |
7 |
(yet)? |

Good idea. |
