I agree to remove python24, and not object to remove python25, newer google-appengine can run with python27 and I would like to use python27 to develop new system, and users have python25 apps deployed are not affected.

We do, too. Do you have a plan for updating www/zope to 2.13? BTW, what's the status of BlueBream? Thanks, Li-Wen --=20 Li-Wen Hsu http://lwhsu.org
