I would say that we are not expecting that 7.8.0 will be perfect and
all problems/bugs will be solved. If we plan a perfect release that we
will never release :-) Moreover Python3 support will be widely tested
when there will be packages available to install. I would expect that
many problems will be discovered after release. Then we can come with
a more frequent point releases.

Just my two cents,

Ma
