Re: [Safekeep-devel] SafeKeep version 1.4.4 (stable) released

[Frank C. <fr...@cr...>]

Spiro,

SafeKeep 1.4.5 and on will maintain support for Python 2.3, for as long
as EL5 is supported.

However, at some point, there may also be a branch to also support
Python 3, if and when rdiff-backup also moves to Python 3.

The one thing to note is that we don't rigorously test it on Python
2.3, so issues may occasionally crop up which will need to be
addressed.

Regards
Frank
