Adding Alfredo, Ken, and dev@,
I think there are some open questions about when the needed py3 dependencies will be in place?
My PR is still open https://github.com/ceph/ceph/pull/25969 where Ken addressed this question at: https://github.com/ceph/ceph/pull/25969#issuecomment-478648863 There are a few things in there that are still not resolved (like the python34 vs python36 prefixes), and CentOS8 not being out. I would love to see EPEL 7 starting to provide the Python3 packages we need, but if CentOS8 comes first, then we should just go with that. Until then, I don't think we can do much to be Python3 only. We can't determine the removal of Python2 support for a given release without having distros providing the Python3 packages we need, and in the case of CentOS there is no release date announced.

Hi Sage,
This morning during our daily dashboard standup was raised the question of whether python 2 will still need to be supported in Octopus.
The information of the discussion around this topic in the mailing lists is not very clear. My understanding is that we're going to remove python 2 support in Octopus but it hasn't still happened in master.
Can we get a clear statement in the mailing list if the above is correct, that we indeed will move to a python3 only support?
