The master branch is where the development is taking place.
Using python3 at this stage is something where you should plan for good
testing before deployment, I've found a bug in the mail-gateway (which
was moved to an API that is available with both, py2 and py3) as
recently as three days ago or so (thanks to Joseph who fixed this very
quickly). The bugs I found so far also affected python2.

That said: Your testing and feedback is very welcome!
