Hi,

I respectfully don't agree. We need to drop Python 2 support *now* for
all the Django packages. I did a lot of that work already (at least a
dozen of packages are fixed already), there's not so much remaining.

Also, Django 2.2 does *not* have Python 2 support upstream anymore, so
there's no way we can maintain this by ourselves.

Cheers,

Thomas Goirand (zigo)
