Hi, python2 is really long in the tooth - when are we planning to upgrade the

thx

We are using buildbot 0.8.8. CPython is using 3.5.0. When I looked into
upgrading, the first thing that caught my eye is that buildbot now requires
a database (ours currently stores pickled files on disk), so we would need
to get some kind of database going on the host machine. Then we would need
to try upgrading the versions, there are upgrade guides [0] starting from
0.9 all the way up to 4.0
I'm naive, but why would you need to upgrade? Why not just create a new master
and start fresh?

We could start fresh. We do have some customized pages that would have
to be updated: summary (hard, it includes log parsing and building
custom HTML), nightly (easy), maybe some others. So moving to a newer
buildbot would be nice, but it is quite a bit of work.
We still require python2 for running untranslated tests. However (1) the
macos buildbot is currently not running untranslated tests, (2) pypy2
should JustWork for these tests, and if not we should fix that.
Maybe you could run the buildbot worker with PyPy2? I tried doing that
with the windows worker, but it turned out some of the dependencies were
missing on windows. Perhaps they are available for macOS?
