Python 2.6 required?

[GoogleCodeExporter]

python 2.6 doesn't come with ubuntu hardy, btw, so we should probably avoid 
depending on it if possible.

$ ./google.py calendar add "Lunch with Jim at noon tomorrow"
./google.py:67: Warning: 'with' will become a reserved keyword in Python 2.6
  File "./google.py", line 67
    with open(options.summary, 'r') as summary_file:
            ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Ugh, looks like hardy only comes with this in its python-gdata:

And that's weird because docs doesn't work for me.

The docs code in GoogleCL uses the 2.0 version "client" module rather than the 
service 
module, so that makes sense.

I'll write up a version that uses the service module as part of the 
more-backwards-
compatible changes.

Have you noticed anything else cropping up specific to python2.5? I think you 
nabbed everything in r146
