Current state: For: 3 rdieter, tibbs, abadger1999 Against: 1 racor racor wants to have a note in the guidelines of when the python-2.x package will be removed from Fedora. Other committee members argued that this was 1) out of scope for the FPC (would be a packagr or FESCo decision) and 2) impossible to know at this juncture as the uptake of python3 among module authors is not yet very high -- that leads to no one being able to port because their dependencies have not been ported.
This was passed via vote on the mailing list so it has been added to the list of Guidelines for FESCo to ratify at its next meeting.
