Python 2 End of Support Impact on Jython 2

Hello Team,

We having few query related to Jython 2.x and after EOL of Python 2 what was the impact on Jython 2.x.
I also checked that current Jython release is 2.7.2.

In our tool , we are using jython version 2.5.3, In timely manner some security vulnerablities are also getting reported on Python, then Python usuallly release fixes for these vulnerability for its various stream(such as 2.7, 3.5, 3.6 ..etc).
To overcome these security issue in our jython 2.5.3 , we simply merges the code in our jython files from the patched file released in Python 2.7 stream. But after EOL of Python 2.x , no official fix is releasing for Python 2.x stream.We are unable to handle those security vulnerability in Jython 2.5.3.

Few queries are :

  *   How we handle/fix those reported vulnerability for Python 2 in jython 2.x libraries ?
  *   For Jython users. will jython.org  would be providing fix for the same vulnerability which will reported in Python 2 stream?or any plan in future?
  *   Is jython 2.x having resemblance with python 2.x libraries only?or python 3.x also supported in jython 2.x?As currently jython version is 2.7.2 but python having 3.7.x version . Can you please clarify Is any  particular jython version supports any specific Python version libraries?
  *    Is any plan to release jython 3.x libraries to incorporate or support python 3.x in it?

We are currently blocked for few security vulnerabilties implementation in jython 2.5.3.
Your suggestion is helpful here. Please respond

Thanks
Aditya Raj
