+1 from me. (With the caveat that "time will tell" is definitely the ultimate answer. Plans may change unexpectedly, even though we don't expect them to.)

PS. I'm surprised that Martin thinks that the -3 mode in 2.6 is not helpful.

That's really because I haven't even attempted to use it. Instead, the software would fall flat on its own when running the test suite in 3.x. IOW, I don't need 2.6 to tell me what might break when I can see 3.x actually breaking.
