I don't think we want to break any current feature in 2.7, we will probably just display deprecation warnings and keep them, then wait until the next python version.
And if someone want to use your package, that uses a new feature that is not present in 2.5/2.6, he will need to install the backport.
Some good practice will be needed for package developers for this (maybe a kind error message)
Well, that's survivable, if not ideal. I would push hard for a rename if I could just come up with a good name. But I can't. :-) -- Lennart Regebro: Pythonista, Barista, Notsotrista. http://regebro.wordpress.com/ +33 661 58 14 64
