Err, yeah. I mean in 2.7, as in, 2.7.1+. I've updated my post to make that more clear.

Hasn't that generally been the case? That is, Python 2.6.1 "is the first bugfix release of Python 2.6. Python 2.6 is now in bugfix-only mode; no new features are being added." So there's nothing new about 2.7.1 being only a bugfix release.
There will be no python 2.8. Ref: http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0404/
Hmm. I think I misread things. I thought the author was saying that 2.7.x is a problem because 2.7.x are bug fixes-only. I now see I could have read that as there will be no features added, starting with 2.7.
