--- Comment #6 from Matthias Andree <mand...@freebsd.org> ---
What efforts are underway to evaluate and deploy python 2.x compatible
interpreters, such as Tauthon, or someone else was mentioning PyPy? Anyone
aware of these?
I am asking for my port (mail/mailman) where upstream declined a Python 3.x
migration and instead decided to write a new piece of software with a
completely different architecture and requirements and feature set that was
coincidentally dubbed mailman-3, but is not a viable migration path from
mailman-2 for lack of features, lack of migration aids, and more.
(Mailman is a mailing list driver with web front-end, archival, self-service
and other features.)
I suspect there may be a few more ports that would otherwise have to go, and
measuring branch lengths and counting leaves is not an appropriate metric to
determine the importance of a port.
We may only know we've expired one too many port when users shout at us in
2021, or, worse, silently turn away from FreeBSD.
