Twisted 15.4 will still operate, so if you have Python 2.6 deployment requirements, bracket the maximum to 15.4 on that platform by using an if statement in your setup.py, and `Twisted >=*minreq*,<=15.4; python_version < '2.7'` under requires_dist in your setup.cfg, where minreq is the minimum required Twisted.
