I am not married with Python. Up to now I see no alternative for me, but I guess sooner or later I will switch to a different language.
I see only few benefits from porting my code to Python3. I will use Python2 at least for the next 12 months.
That's your right, of course. Some people love to experiment with new languages, some don't. But...
What will this other language be, and what does it offer that makes it better than Python 3?
I would love to see "compile to javascript" support. I would love to see a package management that is easy to use and which focuses on simple data structures.
When you move to Language X, will you re-write your code to X, or leave it in Python 2 forever?
I guess I will use language X for a new project.
If the answer is "re-write in X", do you think that will be easier than porting it to Python 3?
If the answer is "leave it in Python 2 forever", then why can't you do that for your existing code and write new code in Python 3?
I could write new code in Python3, but I see big no benefit. (I see benefit, but no big) Does Python3 run in web browsers? Or is it possible to compile it to javascript? I guess I will port my python2 code to python3 sooner or later. If Django drops support for Python2, then I will do it. Regards, Thomas Güttler -- http://www.thomas-guettler.de/
