Anyone still using Python 2.5?

Hi All,

What's the general consensus on supporting Python 2.5 nowadays?

Do people still have to use this in commercial environments or is 
everyone on 2.6+ nowadays?

I'm finally getting some continuous integration set up for my packages 
and it's highlighting some 2.5 compatibility issues. I'm wondering 
whether to fix those (lots of ugly "from __future__ import 
with_statement" everywhere) or just to drop Python 2.5 support.

What do people feel?

cheers,

Chris
