Very tough to know at this early stage, but the challenge is that while most of the software was tested to work in Python3-only environments over the past 2+ years, there was still a lot of ancillary testing and automation in the CI for those older branches which needed to be overhauled to remove all lingering traces of Python2 use. It will probably boil down to whether anyone is sufficiently motivated to do the work to backport all of that testing and automation uplift to those earlier branches. -- Jeremy Stanley
