Drop python2.6 support #141

Closed vlcinsky closed 6 years ago

vlcinsky commented 6 years ago

Trying to run tests under python 2.6 is printing DEPRECATION warnings.

Python 2.6 also does not run with latest version of SQLAlchemy package.

Proposal: drop support for python2.6 as it is not supported by core python team.

vlcinsky commented 6 years ago

tablib already dropped python 2.6

3.6 30.54% 1,001
3.5 8.66% 284
3.4 8.30% 272
2.6 0.03% 1

Please see PR #146.

vlcinsky commented 6 years ago

@hugovk see my PR #140 which includes similar modification. You were more careful with PR #146 and fixed metadata in setup.py too.

Whichever PR would get accepted, we should hope @kennethreitz will deal with existing PRs or will assign 2nd maintainer to let things evolve.

@vlcinsky up for the task? :)

vlcinsky commented 6 years ago

@kennethreitz yes. Thanks.
