That's the hangup IMO. Ending Python 2.7 will make no difference there either good or bad, I think. We need to find other ways of improving adoption.
And to be clear: I am therefore not arguing *not* to end it. I just don't think that doing so will increase Python 3 adoption. I think that's a red herring. I have little opinion on whether to announce an official end or not, nor when. I think the burden of maintaining many branches is a much better argument, and that it therefore probably should be decided by the maintainers. //Lennart
