[jira] [Created] (COMDEV-158) Require Python3 for all scripts

Sebb created COMDEV-158:
---------------------------

             Summary: Require Python3 for all scripts
                 Key: COMDEV-158
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMDEV-158
             Project: Community Development
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: Projects New
            Reporter: Sebb


Some of the scripts require Python3 and some require Python2

I think some may work with either, but this can be tricky to maintain.

Python3 has been out for quite a while now, and is generally better.
In particular, I/O is more easily controllable - no spurious spaces or newline chars!

For ease of maintenance, perhaps now is the time to drop support for Python2
