Python 2 and Python 3 are enough different to effectively be different languages.
BTW, there is a python2 to 3 converter, however -I- don't know how successful that would be and I've done multiple language conversions over time (basic->fortran, different dialects of fortran, perl->tcl, and a few others); there are always gotcha's that need hand editing to make them work or be sensible (and if an underlying library function is missing you'll have to get it from somewhere).

If anyone feels like a "project", getting MM2 to run on python3 would be both a challenge and a service.
