If the code performs the function it was intended to perform, and does so in a time-frame that is acceptable to you and your clients, then migrating it is absolute foolishness. Old code is less buggy than new code, and migration will only create new bugs where none existed before. Don't listen to these religious fanatics. New is not always better, nor preferred. Anecdote: My ex-GF would run out and buy a new phone, a new computer, or some other stupid gadget or another every time a slick advert told her to do so, and i would try to explain to her: "Listen babe, it's just a new shade of lipstick on a pig!" -- but she wouldn't listen. She had to have the new thing just because it was _new_. And they wonder how Microsoft made billions! #_o -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
