  This patch basically mean that if we fix thg packaging before 6.1 is released, we can drop Python 2. For us developers, that means still supporting Python 2 until this is done. Could be tomorrow (fingers crossed heh), at the end of the cycle, or in Mercurial 7.8 if nothing moves on. As said previously we're trying to make that work currently internally at Octobus, but it's really not something that we have time (or really expertise) for right now unfortunately.
