Compatibility
#############
The package is written using syntax compatible all the way back to **Python
2.4** released November 2004, making it suitable for managing a fleet of
potentially ancient corporate hardware. For example Mitogen can be used out of
the box against Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, released in 2007.
Support for Python 3 is included using 2to3 triggered during setup.py, however
such a Mitogen install does not support communicating with older 2.x systems. A
future revision will support full cross 2/3 compatibility.
Mitogen is syntax-compatible with **Python 2.4** released November 2004, making

Every combination of Python 3.x/2.x parent and child should be possible,
however at present only Python 2.6, 2.7 and 3.6 are tested automatically.
