API/ABI transitions (such as switching default Python 3 to be PYthon 3.5) are managed by the release team, with a workflow described at <URL:https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/ReleaseTeam/Transitions>. A transition is initiated by a bug report against ‘release.debian.org’, tagged with the user-tag “transition”. You can check current transitions <URL:https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?users=release.debian....@packages.debian.org;tag=transition>. The transition of default ‘python3’ to Python 3.5 does not appear in that set, so I'm not sure how it's being tracked. The prior transition – to add support for Python 3.5 – is at <URL:https://bugs.debian.org/798999> and refers to future transitions. I think maybe the “default python3 is Python 3.5” transition has somehow become entangled with that prior one. > Is there anything that can be done to help? Have a read through the log for bug#798999 and see whether they're waiting on something we can help with. -- \ “Are you pondering what I'm pondering?” “I think so, ...
