Andy,
Has anyone familiar with Python looked at migrating to Py3 and GTK3?
I have avoided Python like the plague, but I do use a VCP and/or GTK based
panels.
I just looked at GTK3 and GTK4 is current, however, they say don’t migrate
from GTK2 to GTK4 but rather from GTK2 to GTK3.
yes, that is what this is all about, and I have been working on for a
long time.

Subject: [Emc-developers] Proposal: Stop supporting Py2 and GTK2 in
Master.
This has been discussed a little in an out of the way corner of github:
https://github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/pull/943#issuecomment-835870729
But I think that the time has come to decide that Py2 support does not
belong in 2.9.
I think that this also means losing GTK2 support(?), so there will be some
breakage of UI and existing VCP panels.
There has been a suggestion to make a final Py2 release based on master,
but I don't know if that would help all that much with those users running
master from Buildbot, as they will probably still end up installing a
Py2-free Master before they notice.
