Hmm. So it's really hard to know. Pity. I suppose it's too much to ask for IP-based stat exclusion for the most commonly-used CI systems (Travis, Circle, etc)? Still, it does look like most pip usage happens on Linux. Also, it seems likely that the people who use Python and pip heavily are going to be the ones who most care about keeping up-to-date with point releases, so I still stand by my belief that yes, 2.7.14+ could take the bulk of 2.7's marketshare before 2.7 itself stops being significant.

It sems like PyPI statistics are public: https://langui.sh/2016/12/09/data-driven-decisions/

Another article on PyPI stats: https://hynek.me/articles/python3-2016/

2.7: 419 millions (89%) 3.3+3.4+3.5+3.6: 51 millions (11%) (I ignored 2.6)
