I'm lucky in that the company I work for are developing with IronPython. That means I get to use Python 2.4. I'm appreciating the joy of sets and decorators. :-) I doubt we will move to 2.5 until that is the standard stable version of IronPython. For most of my own projects I try to maintain compatibility with 2.3, as it is still very common. For CGI stuff I try to remain 2.2 compatible, because that is the default version of Python on many web-hosts (and Linux distros).
