At present, Google App Engine's production servers only run Python 2.5.2. You should be using Python 2.5 on the development server as well, as having a different environment for testing and production leads to scenarios where, for example, you use syntax that's valid in 2.6 which passes your tests fine, and the unexpectedly gives you frustrating errors when deployed to production.

It should be noted that the Python 2.7 runtime on the production servers is currently in the Trusted Testers stage, and should be available for use in the next few months, but until it is, it's best to stay with 2.5 for development.
