> Are there any guidelines for upgrading from 2.5 to 2.6?

Dear Daniel,

Python 2.5 and 2.6 can coexist, so there isn't any need for some
kind of upgrade procedure. Installing 2.6 will not affect your
2.5 installation.

> Do you have to uninstall 2.5, or does the installer do that for you?

No. After installing 2.6, 2.5 will still be around, with all its
add-ons. If you want 2.5 to disappear, you should uninstall
it first.

> I have wxPython, mod_python and Django installed. Will these have to
> reinstalled/reconfigured for 2.6?

Yes, that will be necessary.

Regards,
Martin
