Nearly everything I learned on Python 1.4 still works in Python 2.6, with the exception of raising strings as exceptions.

I don't recognize any of the Jython / IronPython folks as posting here, but they seem to be quite pleased by the idea of the moratorium: in fact, I see no significant opposition, with the exception of a plea or two for exceptions for already-implemented features.
