  1. Python 3 for Scientists Tom Robitaille @astrofrog on behalf of

    Stephanie Douglas, Adrian Price-Whelan, Stuart Mumford, Nathan Goldbaum, Tom Robitaille, and Erik Tollerud

  2. Developers are moving on!

  3. None

  4. https://python3statement.github.io

  5. What about users?

  6. “… Legacy Python …” “Python 2 won’t be supported anymore

    …” “Minimize pain and switch now …” “… only a few years left now!
