A common mistake of people who announce their projects ;-)
Someone recently make the same mistake on python-list with respect to a 
'BDD' package (the Wikipedia suggests about 6 possible expansions of the

I suggest you specify the base version (2.6.4) on the project page as 
that would be very relevant to many who visit. One should not have to 
download and look at the source to discover to discover if they should 
bother downloading the code. Perhaps also add a sentence as to the 
choice (why not 3.1?).
