Comment (by Chris Johns):

 A primary goal of RTEMS is to provide long life support for hardware and
 hosts.

 I see the major issue with Python2 and Python3 as the shebang and `python`
 support rather than the coding. There are some basic things we need to do
 to support both but it is not a big deal. At this point in time I do not
 support just Python3.

 As a result I prefer we focus on how we manage this situation. I believe
 virtual environments provide this. I see forcing the shebang to `python3`
 as problematic long term.
