I know it's hard to understand, but sometimes painful things like this happen. It's all part of the process of exploration and discovery. It's all part of taking a chance and expanding man's horizons. The future doesn't belong to the fainthearted; it belongs to the brave. Python 3.2 was pulling us into the future, and we'll continue to follow it.

Dropping 3.2 before 2.6? |
|
Sure, usage supports dropping 3.2 but 2.6 still has significant # of users. |
|
@aaugustin Yup. As @dstufft says, this is fundamentally for empirical reasons: the usage of Python 2.6 is substantially higher than the usage of Python 3.2. Given that urllib3 helps underpin pip and requests, which are both required for doing secure client-side HTTP on a Python platform that is incapable of doing it (Python 2.6), we currently still have a duty to our users to support that platform. |

mumble mumble life choices :-P |

I remember a time when 3.2 was actually the least awful of the 3.x releases. So long 3.2. |
