As a long-term project, I suggest making the Python scripts run with both, Python 2.x and 3.x (with x some decent choice of not-too-old versions). For simple modules, this could be achieved by some compatibility definitions and avoiding incompatible syntax. For larger modules/packages, I suggest providing: * two versions of the module/package, where the Py3x version is generated from the Py2x version with the 2to3 script that comes with distutils. * a front end script that detects the Python version and imports the corresponding module. I have some experience in this field from Docutils development, so I may be able to help implementing. Günter
