[Pythoncard-devel] moving to Python 2.4.x and wxPython 2.6.x on Mac

[Kevin A. <al...@se...>]

I'm moving my main Mac setup to the universal build of Python and  
wxPython. I'll keep around at least one Windows and Mac installation  
with Python 2.3.x but for the most part I won't be testing against  
2.3 unless we get some weird report. Since the universal build on the  
Mac goes into /usr/local/bin it should be possible to continue to  
test against the old version.

I'll go ahead and update the Mac install instructions to make use of  
the universal builds rather than the ones that ship with Panther and  
Tiger.

I don't think there is any reason we *NEED* to make use of Python  
2.4.x in the framework or tools, but I see no reason to keep folks  
from making use of 2.4 features in the samples if they want them. If  
you see something in 2.4 you think we really need in the framework or  
tools please bring it up so we can weigh the downsides of upping the  
version requirements.
