Title:
  Provide tag and docs for last python-2.4 version

Status in DataFinder - flexible data management:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  If I'm not mistaken, the current release is not compatible with python-2.4 
although the readme says it is sufficient.
  For example there are some try-except-finally blocks which were introduced in 
python-2.5 (see http://docs.python.org/whatsnew/2.5.html#pep-341).

  However, there are still lots of SLED-10 and RHEL-5.5 (or compatible,
  for example Scientific Linux) installations and these only provide
  python-2.4.2 (see for example
  http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=novell).

  Therefore I'd like you to do four changes:
  1. Fix the readme.
  2. Make a publicly visible tag for the last revision compatible with 
python-2.4
  3. Make a release for that version and mark it accordingly.
  4. I'd also like to know how compatible that version is to the current one 
(old client - new server and vice versa). Maybe you can put this in the readme 
or the "Answers" section on launchpad.
