I've run into a project that demands Python 2.3 (they've got a large
codebase that's still running on Python 2.3) and I'll be implementing
some features in that application that utilize Elixir (if possible).

I see that some patches are in the trunk of SQLAlchemy that support
Python 2.3, but Elixir still has trouble in some cases.

I'm going to file a bug to this effect and I have a patch that fixes
the two issues I've encountered through my own code.

There are still 11 tests that fail under Python 2.3 that fall into 4
categories (list sort parameter, @beforeinsert decorator, generator
comprehension, and a Crypto lib issue).  Of course, more issues may
emerge after the tests are fixed.

Questions
Can my patch be integrated into the trunk?
Is my technique sound?
If I invest the time on addressing the compatibility issues with the
rest of the errors, can they be integrated as well?

I guess what it really comes down to is what is the interest in
maintaining Python 2.3 compatibility?

Regards,
Jason
