The right place to make noise is to the upstream Zope developers.  The
first python 2.5 release candidate was released nine months ago with the
final release coming just after that.

Shipping older versions of python ends up entailing shipping huge swaths
of a runtime for more than one version causing huge amounts of overhead
for developers and users.
