NullPointer added a comment to T259991: pwb.py and setup.py should keep running with Python 2.7 and Python 3.4+.

Also, because I cannot clone from Gerrit I cannot commit to Gerrit, due to the internet connection.

In the setup.py I found a comment stating that this version of Pywikibot is not intended to run on python 2.7, so closing task.

Actually, Python 2.7 to 3 have some major syntax changes, for example, stdin is read through the input() function, and XML-RPC lib must be changed for backwards compatibility.

input() is not a different syntax and that library is not used by the framework. My idea is to have a simple CI check to validate that both of these two scripts run still with Python 2.7 or 3.4. Any different behaviour of Python implementations does not care because a version check is made in setup.py as well as in pwb.py very early.

Claimed the task. I will work on it soon so this is high priority.

NullPointer added a comment to T260281: mw* servers memory leaks (12 Aug).

I suggest setting this a security issue since this may cause people to intentionally make memory leaks to damage servers using this software.

MW extensions and PYwikibot. Currently, only I will use this instance, but others may use this in the future.

@bd808 This is not a laptop in the cloud. Although I stopped developing Huggle, I am developing Kiwix and MW extensions, and I need a VPS to test out.
