Hi, Python 3 is clearly taking over the world these days, so it starts feeling arcane to require Py2 syntax in .pyx files. Increasingly, it means that people cannot just rename .py files anymore to start optimising them, because the .py file has a high chance of being written in Py3 syntax.
Eventually, we will have to switch to Py3 syntax by default in order to follow what most people are (or will be) used to. As a transition, I think we could start warning about cases where the language level is not set explicitly. If people start marking their code as being "Cython 2.x code", either with an in-file directive or from their setup.py, we will have less of a problem in the future to change the default. What do you think? Any other ideas, comments, objections?
