Dropping Python 2.4 and 2.5 support

Hello PycURL users,

I would like to propose that PycURL support for Python versions 2.4 and
2.5 is dropped.

While PycURL code itself works fine with those Python versions, the
test suite uses, and would like to use more, third party libraries that
do not support ancient Pythons. So far I have been able to work around
lack of Python 2.4/2.5 support in these libraries but this is becoming
too much of an uphill battle.

Python 2.4 and 2.5 have been end of lifed for a long time and I don't
think any recent distributions use them. Are there any objections to
dropping support for them?

Oleg
