So you're happy because you've support until at least 2020, and the 
people using Python 3 are happy, mainly because of the vastly improved 
unicode handling via the FSR and asyncio in 3.4.  Presumably the only 
unhappy people are those who keep bleating on about forking Python to 
produce a 2.8, or has work on this already started without my knowledge?
