Timeline ========

In Python 2.4, you must enable the new absolute import behavior with :: from future import absoluteimport You may use relative imports freely. In Python 2.5, any import statement that results in an intra-package import will generate a PendingDeprecation warning (this also applies to from <> import that fails to use the relative import syntax). In Python 2.6, import will always be an absolute import.

Why PendingDeprecation? If the import semantics change in incompatible ways in 2.6, 2.5 should generate a "normal" DeprecationWarning, I think.
