+You cannot run the tests in Python 2.4, since there is a test using

+the with statement, but the decorator module is expected to work

+anyway (it has been used in production with Python 2.4 for years). My

+plan is to keep supporting all Python versions >= 2.4 in the core

+module, but I will keep the documentation and the tests updated only

+for the latest Python versions in both the 2.X and 3.X branches.

+Finally, notice that you may run into trouble if in your system there

+is an older version of the decorator module; in such a case remove the
