      <br>
      QGIS 3 should come with python 3. I don't think that python 3 can
      be a smooth transition so this would require us to make QGIS 4 and
      break plugins once again.<br>
      <br>
      Qt5 support does not require QGIS 3.<br>
      <br>
      Geometry and Composer(Layout) may need QGIS 3. But then we can as
      well just introduce python 3 as well.<br>

              I'm just wondering - given a few large changes coming up,
              including:<br>
              - qt5 support, possibly breaking plugins<br>
              - potential composer redesign, breaking api<br>
              - geometry rework, where an api break would result in a
              better<br>
              foundation moving forward<br>
              <br>
              ... is it worth exploring the idea of making the next
              release QGIS 3.0<br>
              and breaking API? I know the original plan was for 3.0 to
              coincide<br>
              with python 3 support, but that doesn't appear to be
              anywhere on the<br>
              horizon yet.<br>
