[GRASS-dev] NumPy: timeline for dropping Python 2 support

[Pietro Zambelli]

Dear devs,

I've just find out this news on reddit [0], and  I think it is relevant
also for GRASS.
Numy is planning to drop the python2 support [1]:

The current plan is as follows.

  * Until *December 31, 2018*, all NumPy releases will fully support
    both Python2 and Python3.
  * Starting on *January 1, 2019*, any new feature releases will support
    only Python3.
  * The last Python2 supporting release will be designated as a long
    term support (LTS) release, [...], it will be supported by the
    community until *December 31, 2019*.
  *  On *January 1, 2020* we will raise a toast to Python2, and
    community support for the last Python2 supporting release will come
    to an end.
