this is so going to cause us
pain19:27<http://schooltool.pov.lt/irclogs/latest.log.html#t2009-03-26T19:27:52>
ignasat the moment our "releasing" infrastructure is running on
schooltool.org19:28<http://schooltool.pov.lt/irclogs/latest.log.html#t2009-03-26T19:28:12>
ignaswhich is gutsy19:28<http://schooltool.pov.lt/irclogs/latest.log.html#t2009-03-26T19:28:16>
ignasso we are releasing to gutsy, and then forward-porting to
jaunty19:28<http://schooltool.pov.lt/irclogs/latest.log.html#t2009-03-26T19:28:29>
ignasand suddenly packages that work for jaunty will not be suitable for
intrepid, not even talking about
gutsy19:28<http://schooltool.pov.lt/irclogs/latest.log.html#t2009-03-26T19:28:49>
ignasso backporting will be a
pain19:29<http://schooltool.pov.lt/irclogs/latest.log.html#t2009-03-26T19:29:04>

ignasand having release infrastructure using gutsy is making it even more
insane19:29<http://schooltool.pov.lt/irclogs/latest.log.html#t2009-03-26T19:29:27>
ignasmenesis is setting up a cowbuilder so we could build locally without
the PPA delay and test
everything19:30<http://schooltool.pov.lt/irclogs/latest.log.html#t2009-03-26T19:30:19>
ignasbut I really don't know what will have to be done with future

So... how insane is this going to be?  Will be so insane that we should
consider dropping support for pre-Jaunty releases?  I'm not saying I want to
do that, but should we even consider it?

2.6 will probably be with us for a long time, as I imagine everyone will
want to pause to transition from 2.6 to 3.0 rather than race into releasing
2.7 and 3.1, etc.  I guess this will be discussed at PyCon.
