The usual way projects take nowadays is to first switch to a polyglot (2 + 3)
codebase using libraries like "six", then remove the compatibility layer when
they're ready to drop Python 2 support. That way, it's easier to do things
incrementally rather than all in one go.

Some more useful resources, FWIW:
