The priority of this needs to be discussed at the next architecture meeting. With all current churn and lack of a working build, this activity in my opinion needs to wait.

I created a story days ago, and studied most of our Python code and the python rpms in the system. Here's the conclusions: 1. Most of the Tis dependency python packages are already Python 2/3 compatible, but still some exceptions: a. The following packages are Python2 only and same for the latest code tree: i. createrepo-0.9.9 (used by cgcs-patch-controller) ii. net-snmp-5.7.2 (used by snmp-audittrail) iii. pyparted-3.9 (used by sysinv) b. The following packages are Python 2 but the latest version has Python 3 support, need upgrade: i. python-daemon-1.6 (used by logmgmt) * This analysis is still on-going, more packages may be found. 2. The Python modules for Python 2/3 compatibility (python-futures and python-six) are already included. 3. Some of the openstack packages/dependencies are Python 2 only, we may need to find a good version of Openstack to upgrade. We can start to clean our code first, I think we follow the guideline here, one topic each time, how do you think? http://python-future.org/compatible_idioms.html Here's the link for the story: https://storyboard.openstack.org/#!/story/2002909 Yan
