Reducing the number of languages used by the project and facilitating the introduction of more languages seem to be contrasting goals. Accordingly, I would leave out the last part of the sentence.

Instead of esplicitly singling out 2.7 and 3.x, I would just say that for both C and Python there it is required to support all platforms listed in "platforms.html".
