The majority of uservoice-python code is Python 2/3 compatible. For the
small amount that is not, it is very easy to handle without using a
library.

This allows uservoice-python to drop an unnecessary dependency. The
future library is not well maintained. As far as Python 2/3
compatibility libraries go, it is not very popular compare to six. The
future library modifies Python's builtins and stdlib, which can cause
unusual and unexpected behaviors across a large system.
