Ok, I'll be that guy.

What is the reasoning behind releasing a new library with python 2.7 support and not python 3 in late 2017?!

Ugh

Because the people we are working with as commercial clients wanted 2.7 supported; they weren't interested in Python 3. We have Python 3 support slated for the end of the year.

Basically, we establish a roadmap for ourselves and then adjust it based on interest from folks who will pay us.

We are now adjusting that to including feedback from the open source community as well.

There are many many things we could be building. Getting feedback from folks who will help us grow the business is an important part of our process.
