Bug fixing will end in May/June 2015 with 2.7.8, maybe 2.7.9. It will
probably start tapering off before that on the basis that fixes may
break working code that has worked around bugs. I am not sure how long I
will backport Idle patches.
Code-only security patches after that? Undecided. I think PEP 466
defines what the focus will be -- keeping 2.7 web apps from becoming bad
internet citizens.
