Bummer... :(
See the last paragraph of Barry's post at <https://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-developers/2014-December/024134.ht...>.
Multiple Python versions can coexist happily side by side. For example, on my production CentOS 5 server, I have (uptime included as partial explanation of why it's CentOS 5)
[mark@sbh16 ~]$ uptime 09:55:41 up 1821 days, 17:04, 1 user, load average: 0.00, 0.03, 0.08 [mark@sbh16 ~]$ python -V Python 2.4.3 [mark@sbh16 ~]$ python2.7 -V Python 2.7.9 [mark@sbh16 ~]$ python3 -V Python 3.4.2
I submit that for quite some time it will be significantly easier to install an alternate Python from source than it will be to install and configure and migrate to any Mailman 3, so just consider the Python installation a small part of the total.
