Title:
  [MIR] python-future

Status in python-future package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Availability:
  - Already in universe and available on applicable archs.

  Rationale:
  - Future is the missing compatibility layer between Python 2 and Python 3. It allows one to use a single, clean Python 3.x-compatible codebase to support both Python 2 and Python 3 with minimal overhead.

  Needed for parsedatetime (in main)

  https://pypi.python.org/pypi/future
  http://python-future.org/

  Security:
  - Never had a CVE

  Quality assurance:
  - Good testsuite (more than 1k tests ran on top of Python2 and Python3)
  - Simple Python library

  The status of important bugs in Debian's, Ubuntu's, and upstream's bug tracking systems must be evaluated. Links to these bug trackers need to be provided in the MIR report. Important bugs must be pointed out and discussed in the MIR report.
