Not really. The only thing delayed was the final release,2.7.18, so it
could be done during PyCon. The end of core developer maintenance
occurred on schedule.
"Effective January 1, 2020, no new bug reports, fixes, or changes will
be made to Python 2."
Any further changes should be cleanup patches by or with the approval
of the release manager, preparing for the release candidate and then the
final release.
