Yeah, as I've noted in the sum-up mail, it's clear that we won't be able to switch server (and possibly workstation) completely, although I'm quite sure we will be able to switch the minimal cloud image to python3 only (again, that's based on the assumption that the cloud images are generated from fedora-cloud-base.ks, I'm CCing Matthew to make this matter clear :)).
