I'm +1 for the color bar idea like w3c and also we should just choose  
a color palette and then jus choose a color for each new release of  
python (and of course the back ones). No color formulas based on  
versions please (this would just end up in ugly colors and no one  
knowing how to decode the version from the color anyway).
