Python 2.6.7

Python 2.6.7 has been replaced by a newer security-fix only source release of Python. Please download Python 2.6.8 instead.

Python 2.6.7 is a security-fix only source release for Python 2.6.6, fixing several reported security issues. Python 2.6.7 was released on June 3, 2011.

The last binary release of Python 2.6 was 2.6.6.

Python 2.6 is now in security-fix-only mode; no new features are being added, and no new bug fix releases are planned. We intend to provide source-only security fixes for the Python 2.6 series until October 2013 (five years after the 2.6 final release). For ongoing maintenance releases, please see the Python 2.7 series. The NEWS file lists every change in each alpha, beta, and release candidate of Python 2.6.
