Thanks all for the discussion. Looks like we don't have consensus for listing on python3statement.org. As a whole-system distribution, we're running on a different timeframe to the individual python packages. But in any case, the process of removing python2 packages from Debian is underway. By end of 2020 we might be able to judge whether it will be a Release Target for bullseye. Drew
