No. I said I hate that we're doing it, but note that I approved, merged,
and deployed this anyway.

But the cdimage code itself has been bilingual for a while, and it should be
possible to switch the codebase to python3 now on the existing xenial host.
I would've been in favor of doing this now, except ubuntu-archive-tools is
*not* python3-safe and there are other commands calling into
isotracker.py/qatracker.py in that code base which would need porting first.
