darthcamaro writes "Some programming languages just to major version numbers leaving older legacy versions (and users behind) but that's not the plan for Python. Python 2.6 is not out with a key goal of trying to ensure compatibility between Python 2.x and Python 3.0 which is due out in a month's time. From the article: "Once you have your code running on 2.6, you can start getting ready for 3.0 in a number of ways," Guido Van Rossum said. "In particular, you can turn on 'Py3k warnings,' which will warn you about obsolete usage patterns for which alternatives already exist in 2.6. You can then change your code to use the modern alternative, and this will make you more ready for 3.0.""
