Not that we must, but maybe we could plan on bumping minimum required
versions (Python, Qt[1], etc.) according to schedules such as RHEL's[2]? As
Luke mentioned, RHEL6 ships with Python 2.6, so I would not be in favor of
requiring a minimum of Python 2.7 until at least the end of the RHEL6
Production 1 Phase.
