Hey, just started scanning through the guide!

In the testing section, http://docs.python-guide.org/en/latest/writing/tests/#unittest2 covers the backport of unittest2 for Python 2.6.

As this is an "opinionated" guide and I'm assuming focused on current Python 2.7, is it worth mentioning backwards compatibility at this point?

Alternatively, since I would think backwards compatibly is a more advanced topic, perhaps it's worth pulling into a new section, that tox can link to?
