Anyone know if RHEL 7 will ship with Python 3 in the base, even if not default? That could go a long way to boosting Python 3 adoption.

I know it's in SCL, but that lacks convenience for a lot of users.

RHEL 7 will ship with Python 2.7.5. There is no mention of Python 3 in the release notes.

Probably. Fedora has had python3 and the related libs available as packages for years.
I am not surprised... Fedora always have the new shiny stuff. You almost never need to use "PPA" to get the latest from Fedora release to release.
