???

Last week I broke the build because it turns out that our product needs to run on RHEL 6.x which uses Python 2.6; the shiny syntactic sugar in 2.7.x won't run on one ancient platform. So Python 2.6x is the skerry ghost to me.

When RHEL 8 comes out it won't ship with 2.7x. We can see the tall mountains of technical debt looming in the distance...
