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? When you move to Language X, will you re-write your code to X, or leave it in Python 2 forever? 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? -- Steve
