Well, I agree with all that (and did in the previous thread too). But
the context was Florian's idea of publishing on pypi instead of/before
integrating with notmuch. That's of course his right to do, but my main
(selfish) interest is in having python bindings shipping with notmuch
that work properly with recent python3. I guess even having a separate
set of incompatible python3 only bindings would be better than the
current situation. We could just ship the two bindings in parallel,
deprecate the python2 bindings, and give people a year or so to
transition.
