RHEL 6 support (measured in terms of security updates) ends in November
of this year. So by the time a version of NTPsec releases without Python
2 support, we'd be looking at RHEL 7.

I can't seem to access this, even with my free RedHat subscription:
https://access.redhat.com/solutions/2353081

But my CentOS 7 system has:
$ cat /etc/redhat-release ; python3 --version
CentOS Linux release 7.8.2003 (Core)
Python 3.6.8

So, RHEL seems fine.
