 == Packager Notes ==
 
- * This package is harvested from the standard Python 2.5.2 .msi installer from python.org. 
- * New Python extensions should be unpacked in ''osgeo4w''\apps\Python25\Lib\site-packages
- * Include files and libraries are included, but in the apps\Python25 tree.  The distutils/sysconfig.py settings should be correct.
+ * This package is harvested from the standard Python 2.7.2 .msi installer from python.org (see making a [wiki:pkg-python/Python27 Python 2.7 package])
+ * New Python extensions should be unpacked in ''osgeo4w''`\apps\Python25\Lib\site-packages`
+ * Include files and libraries are included, but in the `apps\Python27` tree.  The `distutils/sysconfig.py` settings should be correct.
  * Extensions may need to be compiled with VC7.1 to be compatible. 
  * etc\ini\python.bat set PYTHONHOME to control sys.prefix and finding of libraries, etc.  This should supercede any other python on the system when python is run within the OSGeo4W shell.

-== Testing: Python 2.7 ==
-It's time to upgrade the python distributed with o4w to the current stable upstream release in the 2.x series, namely 2.7 (ticket #219). To that end see RequiresPython for a list of packages which rely on python, and their current status with regard to being py2.7 ready.
