As commented on the call today, it was decided to make available temporary that layer, in order to have time to update/backport into our Chromium the changes to be able to build without Python2 anymore.

There was mention on last week's YP technical call that upstream Chromium was working on Python 3 support, but I've not gone and looked to see what state that's in. One option would be to perhaps try adding meta-python2 when enabling agl-profile-graphical-html5 as a stopgap measure for now.
