A strong +1 from me. Not only can we drop certain compatability modules 
we've been keeping around; we can also safely rely on a few very nice 
Python 2.3 features, such as

- booleans

- the enumerate type

- unittest.TestCase being a new-style class (you may be laughing, but 
with 5k+ unit tests in Zope3, this really might make a difference)
