[Qgis-developer] QGIS 3.0?

[Matthias Kuhn]

Hi

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.

Qt5 support does not require QGIS 3.

Geometry and Composer(Layout) may need QGIS 3. But then we can as well
just introduce python 3 as well.
