Django 2.0 (and newer) requires Python 3; how about archiver and list handler Django apps?
Hi all;
LTS Django version 1.11, the last supporting Python 2.7, was released earlier this year.
I noticed that in December 2017, Django version 2.0 will be released, which apparently will require Python 3.X
Taken from the Django web site, 'We recommend using the latest version of Python 3. The last version to support Python 2.7 is Django 1.11 LTS.'
Given that the utilities to archive and also handle email lists are both Django applications, which apparently have *not* yet been updated to Python 3, if I understand correctly?
*This leads me to wonder if this presents a problem moving forward and staying compatible with the current versions of Django (in addition to Mailman 3.0)?*
Many thanks in advance for any light you can shed in this area.
Best regards.
Dave Wilson

That is correct and we are working on fixing that soon! Next major release (3.2) should have Python 3 support for all the Django apps.
