When will support for Python 2.3 be dropped?  Because as soon as it can be,
I can start using l.sort(reverse=True).

I think there should be schedule for this  For example, there are many
places in the code that would benefit from using sets, and using sets would
likely decrease memory consumption and possibly increase performance in
later versions of Python.  But sets are a Python 2.4 feature.
