PR Summary

As discussed a few days ago on gitter, it's good to publicly announce our policy of migrating to Python 3.

This PR contains some minor CSS cleanups, e.g. the support buttons have rounded corners to set them visually apart from informational elements like titles and the announcement box, which have edge corners.

Is it worth also adding "Old releases will not be removed from pypi and will continue to be available for the foreseeable future." ?

I don‘t want to make it too verbose. Maybe „... continued as a LTS release. It will receive bugfix updates until January, 1 2020 and will be available further.“

No sure if the wording is correct English. But something along the lines.

There are a lot of useful information in #9404 on this topic (most importantly the two links to discussion from the main post and a very detailed description by @tacaswell on the motivation and the details).

I do see that the box added has limited space available. But wouldn't it be good to let the box link to a page where all of this information is written down?

I think this is good as a side box - we can always link to another page with more info if needed.
