Short version sounds like: Python is a legacy language. We&#x27;re not porting our legacy code and we&#x27;re not starting new projects in Python.<p>I wonder:<p>1. Would this have changed if there was a Python 2.8 with some new features (but still a GIL) that ran most 2.7 code?<p>2. Is your experience representative, i.e. are teams just not starting new projects in any version of Python, even though so many did in the last decade?
