Dear all,

I hope this message finds you well. I apologize for any inconvenience in 
advance, but I am reaching out to seek your assistance regarding our Python3 
CI/CD environment.

As part of our ongoing efforts to expand Ambari support to more operating 
systems, we have recognized the importance of upgrading from Python2 to 
Python3. Python2 has reached the end of its maintenance cycle, and many 
operating systems have ceased support for it. This has resulted in challenges 
when installing big data platforms with Ambari on those particular operating 
systems.

The transition to Python3 would greatly enhance our ability to support a 
broader range of operating systems seamlessly, including but not limited to 
Rocky 8, Ubuntu 22, Debian 11, and more. The necessary code modifications for 
Ambari to accommodate Python3 are relatively minor, and other major components 
of the Apache Bigtop ecosystem have already embraced these new operating 
systems.

Consequently, the Python3 upgrade is a crucial feature for us. However, our 
current CI/CD environment lacks the necessary Python3 distro dependencies, 
rendering it incapable of running effectively. This bottleneck is impeding our 
development and review processes significantly. The corresponding PR link is as 
follows: https://github.com/apache/ambari/pull/3751

We kindly request your assistance or guidance to help address this issue within 
our CI/CD environment. Your expertise and support would be invaluable in 
overcoming this hurdle and facilitating our progress.

Your willingness to contribute to this endeavor would be greatly appreciated, 
and we believe that together, we can swiftly resolve this matter.

Thank you for your time and consideration. If you have any questions or need 
further information, please feel free to reach out to me.

Warm regards,

Jialiang
