     138=== porting to py27 === 
     139 
     140The slave is known not to work with py27. Porting to allow this 
     141is not straightforward. 
     142 
     143Attempts to get the slave running at Virginia Tech and IHEP on py27 
     144failed. A few low-hanging fixes were done and propagated into the bitten patch  
     145but the process is not complete. 
     146 
     147The porting is not easy due to our use of an ancient bitten version 
     148and we cannot change that without changing the version of the Trac master. 
     149This is because the HTTP based protocol that the slave and master 
     150use to communicate ties together their versions. 
     151 
     152Thus stick with py24/py25/py26
