A language is only as good as its libraries, either the standard library
that ships with the language, or third-party libraries.  It is true that
third-party library has nothing to do with Python 3's technical
completeness as a language, the lack of third party libraries does make
Python 3 "not ready for the prime time" for certain tasks.  It certainly
sounds like Python 3 has turned out to not be a good fit for John's
project, and maybe that has nothing to do with Python 3 itself as a
language, but more as an ecosystem.

What does this have to do with Python itself?  I'm not completely sure,
but maybe it's about the Python community.  What's the way forward?  I
have no idea.  At the very least John is frustrated by the community's
lack of apparent interest in fixing problems in the greater python
ecosystem when it comes to Python 3.
