For one thing, we generally discourage pre-releases.

Yes, but the difference can be mitigated by making your code run cleanly with python 2.6 (... when it's released) and then running a converter. We'll end up getting python 2.6 in when it comes out, so that'll help with the first part. The second part will have to largely be a flag-day type of event due to the high number of python modules we ship and use actively.
