Alex Leblang commented on HBASE-18020:
--------------------------------------

As for the python question, I'd prefer to keep it in python 2. The patch is 
already in python 2 and we use python 2 across hbase so committing another 
python 2 file seems noncontroversial. Python 2 and 3 aren't always very 
compatible and, as you say, python 3 has been our for 10 years yet python 2 
remains more popular. I see no need to make a change that potentially worsens 
compatibility and brings the project to a version of a language that is less 
well known and used.
