+This module works with Python versions from **2.5** to **3.X** and later on it
+was integrated into Python 3 as
+`os.sendfile() <https://docs.python.org/3/library/os.html#os.sendfile>`__
+and `socket.socket().sendfile() <https://docs.python.org/3/library/socket.html#socket.socket.sendfile>`__
(see `bpo-10882 <http://bugs.python.org/issue10882>`__ and
`bpo-17552 <https://bugs.python.org/issue17552>`__).
-Sendfile support is available in Python 3.X stdlib as
-`os.sendfile <https://docs.python.org/3/library/os.html#os.sendfile>`__ and
-`socket.sendfile <https://docs.python.org/3/library/socket.html#socket.socket.sendfile>`__
-so this package is mainly useful if you're on Python 2.
