Why not drop ranges as well as operators and simply use commas? The above would be rewritten as:
Requires-Python: 2.5, 2.6, 2.7
This would prevent the ambiguity on the inclusive or exclusive nature

upper bound of the range.
What about specifying that the package works only with, say, 2.6.2 or earlier (because of some problem introduced by 2.6.3)? That could get pretty darn verbose. (Also remember we aren't just talking about the syntax for Python versions, but versions for any package).
Ok, you're right. Let's drop my proposal then. Regards Antoine.
