"A Way Forward - How to go forward then? I think it makes sense to work 
as hard as possible to lift those Python 2 codebases out of the gravity 
well."

I think this is complete nonsense.  There's only been five years since 
the first release of Python 3.  Surely much more time should be made 
available for people using Python 2 to plan for a migration?

My fellow Pythonistas, ask not what our language can do for you, ask 
what you can do for our language.
