Hi All,

It may be early to discuss dropping support for Python 2.7, but there is a
disturbance in the force that suggests that it might be worth looking
forward to the year 2020 when Python itself will drop support for 2.7.
There is also a website, http://www.python3statement.org, where several
projects in the scientific python stack have pledged to be Python 2.7 free
by that date.  Given that, a preliminary discussion of the subject might be
interesting, if only to gather information of where the community currently
stands.
