I have been actively working on the python-debianbts part of this. I commented on #732644 but not CC the list at the time. The python-debianbts module depends on python-soappy. There seems to only be one SOAP module currently working on python3. It is a fork of suds which is not packaged for Debian currently (it should probably replace our existing python-suds since upstream is dead) [1].
My work has been on porting python-debianbts to suds. This is made a lot more difficult because the Debian BTS does not expose a WSDL file. I tested some WSDL generation modules on the debbugs code base, but ran into limitations in those modules that would not work with the debbugs code. Luckily, I did find someone had done a good chunk of the work on making a WSDL for debbugs [2]. I have some functions ported to suds using this WSDL file. The get_versions and get_usertags methods are not included in the WSDL, and I have yet to figure out how to properly form them. In the response for get_usertags, the usertag comes back as the name of an XML element, rather than the string value of a element. I am concerned that python-debianbts is not under team maintence. I have already put a good deal of work into this already and there is potential that the maintainer will not have any interest in accepting patches to port the module to python3.
