Default Python 3

One of the main reasons I chose hostgator was because it offered Python.
I was disappointed to find out that the server has python 2.4.3 installed, which is quite an outdated version (2005?).
Python 3 has been out for quite a while now (already up to 3.1.1) and offers a lot of improvements and is much easier to work with.

Whenever I ask about it (either in chat or e-mail support) I get answers like "we don't have plans either to provide it or not to provide it". Well why don't you at least consider it?

Default Re: Python 3

We are awaiting cPanel to integrate their backend applications to use Python 3 fully. At this point Mailman and other backend cPanel scripts run with Python 2.4.x and we have not yet received any official reports that it works properly in Python 3 yet. Once cPanel has shown that their applications will work properly with Python 3 we should be able to get this installed as the default version of Python.
