I agree that the small code base makes it probably easy. But I'm worried about the "once it becomes necessary" part. We all know that Python2 is only alive due to our security team and we should actively work on getting rid of the dependency rather sooner than later. Working "under pressure" makes things always uneasy - no matter how easy it would be in principle. I know probably nobody will stop me from doing it - but I'm hesitating adding another item on my table which is full of Debian Med - Covid-19 stuff. I'd volunteer to port those importers I've written myself once somebody gives the signal - but I'd love if those who have written the core parts would take the lead (rather sooner than later). Kind regards Andreas. -- http://fam-tille.de
