To add to the list, Mandrake Corporate Server 3.0 (supported for the next 4.5 years) is at Python 2.3.3 (2/9/05). I've got this on most of my production servers, and now that its paid for.... well, you know! :-)

The default python version in Debian is still 2.3, so I would really like 2.3 to be supported for MM2.2.
I'm a Gentoo users myself, so I'm not really up on Debian's processes and schedules. However I did check a few other OSes that I had laying around.
Tiger (Mac OS X 10.4) is Python 2.3.5 Gentoo's stable is 2.3.5 RHEL4 is 2.3.4
So it looks like we'll have an uphill battle here, at least in the short term. Of course installing Python from source isn't really that hard; OTOH, every hurdle we put up probably peels off 50% of our users.
I definitely want the new email package, so let's see if it's feasible to target Python 2.3 and email 3.0 as a separate package, but leave open the door to Python 2.4 if there's a really compelling additional reason, or the OS landscape changes.
