Hi David,
it looks like now both branches have master merged and are identical:
$ git diff origin/dev/translation-merge origin/translation
[empty]
Is that intended?
To me this sounds conceptually wrong, given that you want to use one of
them (I didn't understand which one) for 2.20.1 - I don't think we want
to have the Python 3 switch in there.
