--- Comment #9 from Matthias Andree <mandree@FreeBSD.org> ---
I don't have strong opinions either way but am slightly inclined to keep
tauthon.mk separate from Python.=20

My thinking is the majority of important packages should have switched to
Python 3.x now, and for these, we don't need tauthon.for those, and we shou=
ld
not care.

For packages where the upstream maintainers made a clear decision not to po=
rt
to Python 3.x (Mailman 2.x for instance, where 3.x is a rewrite-from-scratch
with all lost features and other idiosyncrasies that entails), tauthon is an
option, and there a switch to a USES=3Dtauthon would not really hurt.

I am not familiar with Python porting to FreeBSD, so perhaps adding python@=
 to
Cc: brings some people in that can help with making the decision on my
questions above in comment #7,
