I totally agree with your logic for migrating to Python 2.6.  However,
this would be somewhat problematic for me.

My Coopr software relies on PLY as well as other software packages
that only support Python 2.5 (specifically, the Python interfaces for
CPLEX and GUROBI).  So, a migration of PLY 4.0 to Python 2.6 would
force me to stick with an older version of PLY. :(   This wouldn't be
a big problem, though, since the current version of PLY seems to work
fine.
