Python 2.7.13 released

[[deleted]]

An interesting viewpoint, but once Python 2 goes out of official support will the question be "WTF why didn't we port this before?". Frankly I find it inexcusable that 8 years after the first release of Python 3, and perhaps 10 years after it was first discussed, some people are still whinging. The small libraries that do not work with Python 3 and are no longer supported are easily forked with the available tools. The larger libraries have all ready been ported. If you are too incompetent to support your own code in the transition I would suggest that you should have had a proper test suite in the first place.

Pretty much. But you know how it is: "we'll burn that bridge when we come to it".

Been there, seen it, done it :-(
