966	"Latest version of ""Markdown"" package is incompatible with Python 2.6"	Matt Molyneaux		"Markdown 2.5 has just been released and is incompatible with Python 2.6.

Other than just dropping Python 2.6 support (not really an option for 0.7.*), we have two other options:
* Pin Markdown to <2.5 until we drop Py2.6 support
* Install importlib via PyPI for Py2.6 users (via conditional requirements in setup.py)

See the [https://pythonhosted.org/Markdown/release-2.5.html release notes] for more details."	defect	closed	trivial	0.8.0	programming	wontfix
