I don't know whether to thank you for the link, or shout at you for sending eyeballs to look at such a pile of steaming bullshit. I'd like to know where Alex gets the idea that the transition of Python 2 to 3 was supposed to be a five year plan. As far as I know, it was a ten year plan, and we're well ahead of expectations of where we would be at this point of time. People *are* using Python 3, the major Linux distros are planning to move to Python 3, the "Python Wall Of Shame" stopped being a wall of shame a long time ago (I think it was a year ago? or at least six months ago). Alex's article is, basically, FUD. More comments will have to follow later. -- Steven -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
