where 'This version' == 3.5.  A possible reason: one is developing an 
app expected to be released fall 2015 after the 3.5 release and the app 
depends on something new in 3.5.  I must admit though that I cannot 
think of any such thing now for 3.5.  For 3.3 there was the new unicode, 
which was first committed about a year before release.  For 3.4, there 
was asyncio, but it was not committed until beta1, and was hardly usable 
then.

So it was a defensible position.  Anyone who would check 3.5 could just 
as well check 3.4 and have most of the same impact on the summary.
