What makes you think anything's wrong? Major changes to any
established piece of software takes a fairly long while to infiltrate.
Lots of COBOL and Fortran 77 still running out there. I imagine there
are still more than a few DOS and Windows 3.1 boxes as well. Why
should adoption of Python 3.x be any different?
