Yeah, I don't really think you need the TC involved at this point...
discussion on -dev and lazy consensus should work perfectly alright.
If you end up facing opposition and we end up needing to pick between
going Py3 and not going Py3, I guess that would warrant a TC
discussion, but I don't expect we'll ever come to that. The few times
it was mentioned in the past there was unanimous support for it...
just not enough resources to drive it.
Happy to see the effort getting more momentum!
