  • Plans for removing Python 2.x dependencies?

    Hello,

    Now that Python 2.x is EOL'ed, what are the SBBS community's plans to remove any dependencies and move fully to Python 3?

    TIA.

    Synchronet, itself, doesn't use Python for anything. I think the libmozjs build requires Python so we when migrate from 1.8.5 to something more recent we'll also get rid of the older Python requirement.
