That sounds reasonable to me; I spoke with the Python maintainers in
our Foundations teams (one of whom also maintains Python in Debian)
and the expectation is that they will start doing working this cycle
(15.10) but I think its realistic that 16.04 would be the target for a
default python 3 switch.

As Thomas points out, we have 3.5 in Debian experimental and Ubuntu
Wily; at some point in time, Debian/Ubuntu will start doing rebuild
testing with these newer versions - we'll feed any bugs/fixes back
upstream so hopefully when we get to the 16.04/3.5 testing enablement,
it will all *just work*.
