[Cryptography-dev] pyca/cryptography python 3.2 support

[Glyph]

Is there a way to answer this question as a query against PyPI metadata?  It seems like the information ought to be there, in some form...

Donald opened an issue (https://github.com/pyca/cryptography/issues/1809 <https://github.com/pyca/cryptography/issues/1809>) with some evidence that we're performing significant contortions to support a version no one uses. I propose that we drop support for Python 3.2 in the next release and move forward with Python 2.6 (deprecated but no timeline for removal), Python 2.7, and 3.3+ support.

If there are no substantial objections in the next few days we can merge and then update jenkins to reflect this as well.
