Hi! Yesterday I had an idea which turned out to work out well. I decoupled the functional tests of devpi-client and devpi-server. That means the devpi-client tests don't need to install devpi-server directly via tox anymore, but it installs it in a separate virtualenv using Python 3 when running tests with Python 2.7. This is working on Travis and AppVeyor. This means the upcoming devpi-server 5.0.0 will be the last major release to support Python 2.7. We will drop support with 6.0.0. For devpi-client (and devpi-common) the support will continue until necessary workarounds aren't being paid for by support contracts anymore or the workarounds will become too complex.

Hi!

I'd like to get some feedback on our Python compatibility policy, see: https://github.com/devpi/devpi/issues/638
