Python 2.x code run a python 2.x interpreter. seeing as both 2.78 & 3.0 
are available for windows & moth Linux's come with V2.7 as the default 
system python I don't see this a fundamentally difficult option.

if you have a large 2.x code base then you should probably stick with it 
anyway, Reserving 3.0 for "Green Field" projects.
