My last two hosts have offered multiple versions of python.
I upgraded to python 3.3 recently on my site. I guess its easier for
some folks to offer such a thing, it just depends on their setup.

My host also offered Django 1.5 almost immediately after its release,
and the same with 1.6. They give the user options, and if they
break their site by upgrading too early (without migrating code) it's
the user's fault.
