That sounds good to me!

For clarify for others reading (and to confirm) I assume we would not be yanking the old releases or anything, so installing bpython in Python 2 would continue to work; it just wouldn't get any updates.

I'm +1 for dropping support (as I added warnings in 0.19) however I might be wary of dropping it so 'quickly'?

Do you propose removing all the special cases or to not pay attention to them anymore for 0.21?

@thomasballinger Yea we won't yank old releases :)

It doesn't feel too quick to me, if there were a show-stopping bug we could do a point release. (thanks for adding those warnings too!)

Then I agree on the timeframe; @sebastinas did you want to remove all the if py3 stuff and make it the default or not pay attention to them moving forwards?

I actually want to remove all the if py3 code in 0.21. Leaving them in the code base would give the false impression that we still care about Python 2 after we dropped support for it.

Considering how often we prepare releases, 0.21 would only happen sometime sometime in 2021. This will give people some time to move on.

Yea that makes sense; probably 0.20 somewhere this year if I get to my assigned bugs then 0.21 somewhere first half of next year. I'd love to remove as much as possible in that release (see also the frontends ticket in #820 ).
