Comment (by teor): I've done some research, here's what I've discovered: * python 2's code freeze starts on 1 January 2020, the final release will be around April at pycon 2020 * if we want to continue testing using python 2 during the transition, we should use python-modernize or python-future, not 2to3 * python 3.6 is the earliest supported python 3; python 3.2, 3.3, and 3.5 added features that make porting easier * we should try to use `if PY2` for any code that won't run in both versions, in case there is a python 4 some day -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/28863#comment:12> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online
