I don't know. I felt that Python 3 was an attempt to route around problems in Python 2 that couldn't be easily fixed.

I don't have much invested in Python at the moment. I would be more aware of and concerned about Python issues if I had larger scripts written in it that I need to maintain.

I have used Perl 5 long enough to know that it is a mature language. I'm concerned about the integrity of CPAN and individual modules' abilities to interoperate with the versions of Linux that I deploy in production.
