[fontforge-devel] Making Python3 the default

[T J <jt...@ou...>]

Hi all,

With support for Python 2 dropping off, in the next release of FontForge, the Windows build will use the Python 3 binding instead of the Python 2 binding, as it has used in the past.

It is likely that the Mac build will follow suit, but this will be decided closer to when the next release is cut.

With that, I’d propose that the next release will be the last release that actually supports Python 2 (if only by compiling it yourself). From that point on, we should move towards removing Python 2 support altogether.

If you have any questions/comments/concerns on this, let me know.

Thanks,
Jeremy
