Some progress on this topic, 3.15 is pretty much the minimum version 
that's
required if we're going to move to Python 3 despite having not having it 
in all
available LTS releases (Debian 8 and RHEL 7 falls under this category).

If anyone is interested the discussion is more or less continued here:
