Is Python script version independent when editing sde database?

[PeterShoemark]

Hello,

     I am working on updating coded domain values in a 9.3 sde database (Oracle 11g) and want to know if I run Python 2.7 standalone scripts (not through 10.2 catalog) will there be any negative impact on the 9.3 database or will I need to run 2.5 Python?

     An upgrade to ArcGIS Server 10.2 is scheduled but not likely for another 5-6 months.

     Cheers, Peter

I guess i will just go ahead and try it then reply to my own question so others can get something helpful from it.

Don't forget to go back to 2.6 and 2.5...the links are there, but buried at the bottom of the page...you have to go back to previous versions and forward all the way up to 3.5 (beta)
