Hi all,

As you may have noticed, Python 2 is officially end-of-life since
January 1st 2020.

https://www.python.org/doc/sunset-python-2/

Some projects have already decided to drop python 2 support:

https://github.com/openvswitch/ovs/commit/1ca0323e7c29
https://wiki.debian.org/Python/2Removal
https://governance.openstack.org/tc/goals/selected/ussuri/drop-py27.html

I figure this may be the opportunity to do the same in DPDK. Does anyone
have arguments against this? If not, I am willing to work on the matter.
