3.2: I know that some projects, such as BTrees, persistent and ZODB, test/work on pypy3. However, pypy3 is only released in a 3.2 compatible flavor (though it does support the u'' syntax). From hanging around on #pypy, there is some progress being made on a 3.3 compatible pypy, but I don't think there's a timeline yet. So is this proposing to drop support for pypy3 too?

2.6: Anecdotally (from comments in the github issue trackers for ZODB related projects), I know that as recently as August of last year, some zope shops still used Python 2.6 in production.

Given that, I guess I'm +0.

Thanks,
Jason
