[Mailman-Users] Now that Python 2 is dead

[Mike Flannigan]

I'm surprised to hear there is so much migration in
Python with limited backward compatibility.?? Perl
has never had that problem.?? I almost never have to
modify my old code.?? I'd recommend you use Perl, but
everybody knows Perl is dead :-)
