This is what I fear will happen. This could mean either some huge 
codebases in Python 2.x are going to be left behind in some kind of 
ghetto, or that the single community will fracture into a Python 2.x and 
a Python 3.x community. Both scenarios suck, so I certainly hope I'm 
being pessimistic about this.
