Hi, Ulrich. Yes, the deadlines are meant to speed up the process as we have *roughly* 1000+ pkgs which must be converted to py3 or removed before we can drop the interpreter. As such, doing this in bulk with delays in between masks helps others find and fix up these packages if they can stay. Some have ports to Py3, others simply don't need the bindings, etc. So, thank you to all who have taken a few minutes to help us keep packages that can still be supported. Unfortunately, we have a bad ratio of devs to # of packages. -- Cheers, Aaron
