I'm wondering if this should be fine tuned to more explicitly encourage 2.6 and above if doing Python 2 (because of 3rd party dependencies), 3.x in all other cases.
+1
An appropriate topic for discussion though. What 3rd party libraries would break? I'm big into VPython, so right off the bat I'm facing such issues. Anyone else using that or am I the only one?
Not using VPython much, other than for an occasional gee-whiz demo ;). Personally, the fact that PyGame's support is still incomplete might be a problem for my more advanced classes - I haven't checked to see if there's a big problem there. Thanks to the turtle library my low level kids would be fine.
Of course the main thing that would break would be existing lessons and instructional handouts...
