2) Looking for packages whose names don't start with 'python', but
where the current version installs something into
/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ and/or into /usr/bin/ with a shebang
containing 'python2', the following packages appear to need rebuilding
for python3:
Hi maintainers,
Please consider rebuilding your packages listed below for python3.
If you are no longer interested in being a maintainer for these (or all
of your) Cygwin packages, please let us know, so we can update our
records and stop bothering you about them!

I might look at some of the more important ORPHANED packages, as time
permits, and some of these are candidates for removal if not updated,
but obviously adoptions are welcomed!

python-rdflib
[3] required updated mate-menus
[4] I feel bad about removing this, but versions which support python3 also
require python-psutil which still isn't ported to cygwin
[5] gnome-doc-utils is a python2-only, GNOME2 era documentation tool. It is
required by gnome-common, which is itself deprecated.
I have temporarily removed that requirement. The GNOME3 era replacement is
yelp-tools.
