Yes I think that pygrass is not supporting Python < 2.6, too. I was asking about python 2.6, only to know if the module orderdict in pygrass is still necessary or not (and it is!) :-D. Between python 2.6 and 2.7, as far as I know, there are not big differences in term of portability to python3, so both versions should be fine.

Is there any difference between 2.6 and 2.7 in terms of easier porting to Python 3? And when we move to Python 3, how difficult is it to keep 2.6 compatibility?

1+ for me too. 2.6 was the standard for the last several Mac versions and it switched to 2.7 in the version before the current one. Michael __ C.

[GRASS-dev] Change/update Python requirements for grass70?
Dear developers, Reading the GRASS7 requirements: http://grass.osgeo.org/grass70/source/snapshot/REQUIREMENTS.html In theory, we are still supporting python 2.4. What do you think if we abandon the support for: - python 2.4 (last release: December 19, 2008), - python 2.5 (last release: May 26, 2011), and may be: - python 2.6 (last release: October 29, 2013), About this version the python website [0] says: "With the 2.6.9 release, and five years after its first release, the Python 2.6 series is now officially retired. All official maintenance for Python 2.6, including security patches, has ended.". Perhaps we should/could drop the support for this release too. I would like to start to support python3, and if we have to support also the release 2.4 and 2.5 it is more difficult. So are you agree to change the requirements for grass70 from Python >= 2.4 to Python = 2.7 or Python >= 2.6? Best regards.
