Thanks for raising this. This is the sort of feedback I was after. I'm not immediately opposed to supporting sles 12 in the way that we have centos 6 for python2.6.
At what point do you think it would be reasonable to drop the 3.4 support then? Am I correct that you already have the next release of SLES (SLES 15) available. I'm guessing it has a 3.6 or greater. Perhaps we could say 3.4 support will be held for as long as python 2? That'd mean users looking for new features from cloud-init would have had almost 2 years to move to sles 15. thoughts?
