Thanks, Brian.  Thank you for all your work on this.

I just want to express LIGO's strong desire for python 3 support for
htcondor.  We're working to build cluster support into our jupyterhub
deployment.  We have a job launcher backend that works very cleanly with
htcondor and python 2.  However jupyterhub itself is python3 and
therefore can't use the htcondor-base launcher.  It would certainly be
nice to not have to rewrite it to use system calls.

Thanks.
