Hi,
my name is José and I am a Lyxoholic. :-)
As part of the discussion that has been going for some time regarding the
development of lyx-2.2, that in another thread I will propose to be instead
called 2.2718281828459045 or as a better shortcut LyX 2e, I would like to
settle the question regarding the minimum version supported.
My suggestion, as stated several times in that thread is to go with python 2.7
or python 3.3+.
That is from python 2 we will support only python 2.7 and from the python 3
series we will support python 3.3 and later.
The idea is also to have the same code to be able to support both python 2 and
python 3, for that I intend to add further documentation to the devel directory
regarding the best advice to do it. That includes, but is not limited to, using
from __future__ import absolute_import, division, print_function
The purpose of this message is then to settle the issue and to let us
concentrate from here on the technicalities to fulfill this goal.
Feedback is appreciated. Regards,
PS: As stated before I will start to handle this in June.
