Since Python 2 will reach it's EOL on 1. Jan 2020, we will drop support for it, too.

The next minor release (v1.2) will then be Python 3 only.

Since TravisCI supports Windows but only for Python 3 we can then drop the use of Appveyor and stick to one CI system.

Python 3.4 has already reached its EOL on 2019-03-18.

We should drop the support of that version too.

We should add this line in setup.py:

python_requires='>=3.5',

Note for self:
remove "Python 2" classifier from setup.py too when dropping support.
