Ansible now supports clients that are py3 only and there's active work
[1] to enable py3 for the controller as well.
Yes. But basically, I don't think we can rely on everyone porting their Ansible
code to Python3 anytime soon. Among other reasons, many, many organizations
will need their Ansible (and in general, "config mgmt/scripting") to work
across
RHEL7 and Fedora hosts. For Fedora Atomic Host (which may be different from
Workstation!) I don't see dropping /usr/bin/python as python2 until RHEL7 is
near EOL. Maybe we don't do security updates for it etc., but still.
