Support for Python 2?

Having the C extension build and work on Python 2 would be awesome!
I know, but I'm completely run out of spare time. It shame for me that I run few open source libs and I can't find few hours monthly to keep things run. :(
BTW I remember that I had deliberately skipped Py2.x, as Py3 come with new string model and I didn't want to duplicate work. It was a mistake.
@WojciechMula I think this is fin, not a mistake but a rational choice. Supporting Py2 and Py3 in the same C extension has been known to damage the brain. Eventually Py2 will slowly be subsumed by Py3 at some time. For now I am using the pure Python version with Py2 and this has be OK so far.
@WojciechMula my mistake: I meant pyahocorasick, not pyDAWG
