Why are we talking about persistently switching machines to Xenial sooner? > * python3 isn't quite ready and we'll feel a lot of pain in the short term I would rephrase that as "folks interested in running tests on Xenial will need to stabilise the python 3 part first", rather than entertaining it as a possibly-acceptable side effect of moving unrelated test suites over to a different distro.
