Does anybody here care about us dropping support for Python 2.6 in Spark 2.0?

Python 2.6 is ancient, and is pretty slow in many aspects (e.g. json parsing) when compared with Python 2.7. Some libraries that Spark depend on stopped supporting 2.6. We can still convince the library maintainers to support 2.6, but it will be extra work. I'm curious if anybody still uses Python 2.6 to run Spark.

Thanks.
