Then how about distributing it with big warnings.

There is Python 3 impatience in part of Sage's user base.
Distributing an experimental Python 3 version would send
a good signal.

We could call the binaries "SageMath-py3-experimental"
and include a big warning in the banner, with a link to the
"Migration to Python 3" page on the Sage wiki.
