I agree. I think for a long time the matplotlib policy was to support
the two latest Python releases, although of course there was no
deliberate effort to break earlier Pythons. Python 2 is of course a
special case, but since Python 2.7 came out in 2010, I think dropping
support for Python 2.6 should be fine in 2015.
