At present we support Python back to about 2.3 (That I have tested). It may work on 2.2 but I haven't tried. Pyhon2.2 is currently our minimum version supported. My question is whether we wish to continue using 2.2 as the minimum going forward. I am wondering if we might consider something like Python 2.7 and higher. Python2.7 can be built on older platforms that may not come pre-installed with it (much older versions of Centos and Fedora for example).
CentOS 6, that can hardly be called much older and will be supported for quite a long time, is still at Python version 2.6. CentOS 5 uses it as well. That would probably be a better minimum.
