Hi Gary,
Is the implication that we can safely drop python2 support after June 2024? Are there any other distributions that ship python2 that we want to maintain support for?
How much does it cost us to maintain python2 support in our own code?
By dropping 2.6 support we would eliminate the need to check for argparse in a few place, glue to replace ordereddict?, be able to use with for resource allocatoion, and the need to pretend to test on 2.6.
I am probably missing a whole bunch of stuff though.
