Hello all,

As you all know, Mercurial's codebase is still burdened by Python 2 support. Patches still need to be adapted for backwards compat, some Python niceties still cannot be used, and the Heptapod CI which is used on a near majority of the patches we collectively land
is still putting in double shifts as well.

At the last (virtual) sprint, everybody present agreed that the time had long passed to drop Python 2 support, but that it couldn't be done until TortoiseHg's Python 3 Windows packaging story was straightened out. Where are we standing on the matter? Are we close?

I am CC'ing Greg who proposed to help at the time, as well as Matt, the maintainer, since they
might know better than anyone where we're currently standing.

Thanks,
Raphaël
