Document PyOWM 2 stream maintenance timeline #265

Closed csparpa closed 5 years ago

csparpa commented 6 years ago

Lay out and publish a timeline for PyOWM 2 stream maintenance

PyOWM 2 stream should only be touched to fix bugs, no new features. The timeline should encompass an overall End-Of-Life date and should take into account the Python 2 LTS branch (v2.9-LTS) until its "natural" death on Jan 1, 2020

Here is the timeline summarizing both Pyhon 2.x and PyOWM 2.x fate:
