So much perl clutching. Just curious, since I guess you've made up your mind, what's your plan to migrate away? Or are you hoping maintainers see your comment and reconsider the road-map?

Rust. I've already re-written several of my decent sized research programs to Rust, and plan to finish converting what's left soon.

Rust isn't perfect (no language is), but they do seem to try much harder to not break backwards compatability.

Not the person you are responding to, but my Python 3 migration plan was to move to Go for all new projects.
I'm sure your departure from the community will be the tectonic shift that'll finally get the PSF to change their course.
