This seems to be a common misconception; I'm not sure why. Python 2.4 has *already* hit EOL. There will only be security fixes released in source form. When a new Python 2.X is released, a final 2.X-1 bugfix release is made and 2.X becomes the maintenance release. 2.X-1 gets critical security fixes only. The unreleased trunk becomes the development version. -Fred -- Fred L.
