There won't be a Python 2.8 (at least, not from python.org), so there
won't be any feature additions to the Python 2 line. It'll be
supported in terms of bugfixes for a good while though, see PEP 373
[1], and of course distributions can do their own backporting of
patches for as long as they like (Red Hat will quite possibly want to
support old Pythons for a long time).
