Yes, ZTK 1.0 should become stable/released soon. Adding a new Python 
version or removing one, doesn't help.

But I really want to see Python 2.7 support rather soon. So how do we 
actually proceed there? Even after ZTK 1.0 is out, how is the 
transition made to 1.1? I suppose there could be a 1.0.1 at the same 
time as a 1.1.0.
