Now, about Python2. It has not died. It appears to be 'useful'.

hi Mark, yes that's my point. I have heard rumors of python2.8? At some
point I would expect that the Cpython interpreter would 'freeze' and no
one would fix it any longer. I have a serious question, namely, why does
the Cpython community continue to suppport two interpreters rather than
asking the Cpython user-base to migrate to Cpython3?
Oh, I have another serious question about implementations. I'm not sure
about (50) implementations, but I know that Jython and IronPython are
serious contenders (although, I have not, nor probably will, use them).
Are the other implementation communities *also* supporting two versions
of the language? Is there a Jython2 &also a Jython3 ?

You could answer all of the above for yourself if you were to use your
favourite search engine.
