+1, explicit is better than implicit.

Since on a Debian system we know we have /usr/bin/python2 (as opposed to
some theoretical portable script that might need to run on other systems),
this sounds perfectly fine to me.

/usr/bin/python2 in shebangs?

[Piotr Ożarowski]

Hi,

I plan to prepare new dh-python upload soon and hence a question about
a bit controversial change: should dh_python2 (as we discussed during
last DebConf's Python BoF) replace /usr/bin/python shebangs with
/usr/bin/python2?

Please note that it's not about pointing /usr/bin/python to python3 -
this will NOT happen. It's about making it easier to those admins that
want to do that anyway (or removing /usr/bin/python from Debian
completely)

Debian Python Modules Team Application

[David Steele]

I'd like to formally join the Python Modules Team, in order to help with the 
Python3 migration for existing modules (starting with python-networkmanager).

My Alioth login is 'steele'.

I've read the Debian Python Modules Policy, and accept it for Team Packages.
