Steve Holden wrote How does throwing away information represent "moving forward"? 'Closing' a tracker issue does not 'throw away' information', it adds information as to current intention. It's certainly not fair to require all core developers to continue working on Python2, but it would also be unfair to cancel out that possibility for a subset of interested devs. Closing a set of issues does not cancel out that possibility. If such a subset of devs develops, they can easily reopen (or move) particular issues they are interested in working on. As long as that's the case I am fine with the change.
