Maintenance releases
====================
Being the last of the 2.x series, 2.7 will have an extended period of
maintenance. The current plan is to support it for at least 5 years
from the initial 2.7 release. This means there will be bugfix releases
until 2015. Depending on Python 3 adoption, this may be modified up or
down.
Dates of previous maintenance releases:
- 2.7.1 2010-11-27
- 2.7.2 2011-07-21
- 2.7.3rc1 2012-02-23
