+Do I lose anything by using Python 2.3 versus newer Python versions, such as Python 2.5?
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+No. Django itself is guaranteed to work with any version of Python from 2.3
+and higher.
+
+If you use a Python version newer than 2.3, you will, of course, be able to
+take advantage of newer Python features in your own code, along with the speed
+improvements and other optimizations that have been made to the Python language
+itself. But the Django framework itself should work equally well on 2.3 as it
+does on 2.4 or 2.5.
