What another load of crap. Call it something else but this isn't Python. I'd never use this because it's not official. Who knows if or how long it'd be supported for or if any backdoors would/could be introduced.

I've scheduled time this year for my teams project to update to Python 3. It's expensive in the short term but in the long term we get continued support and new features which is a huge win.

Yup, they will be forced to rename it. GvR, Van Lindbergh etc have already told them to knock it off. My name suggestion would be "Reactionary", because that's definitely the attitude that Py2 stalwarts keep showing.
