No idea. I'm just saying that "move to python3" is not really possible
for some use cases today.

Reportbug uses debianbts, and debianbts in turn uses soappy. So it all
depends on either porting soappy (and fpconst, used by soappy) to
python3 or porting debianbts away from soappy.

Both soappy and fpconst seem dead upstream, which makes option 2 more
attractive, but it looks like the soap implementations in python3 do
not get along very well with debbugs, as Jordan notes.
