Several projects switched to Python 3 quite a while ago, e.g. ipython, meaning that the Python 2 version has been lagging behind Python 3 for long time already. (in case of ipython, Python 2 support stopped at 6.0, and the current ipython, Python 3 only, is 7.13) That is, the best way it to check the upstream for updates.
