much more likely: you'll finally find the motivation to upgrade your code, not to Python 3 which is 5% better than 2 and 50% more of a pain-in-the-butt, but because there are a multitude of new, faster, parallel-aware languages that are orders of magnitude better, and already make 3.x look like a dinosaur. Move from one dinosaur to a marginally better-but-fussier dinosaur? Doubt it.
- andybak 11y ago> new, faster, parallel-aware languages There were faster languages (and probably more 'parallel-aware' languages - it's not an area I'm very knowledgeable about) before Python but that wasn't the reason it took off. It's fairly unlikely to be the reason it dies off either. Python remains one of the most humane languages out there and that's a quality that is much more intangible and hard to replicate.
