Otherwise it looks like just maintenace burden without profit.
What's the status of python 3 on fedora/debian/suse?
Pavel
In the mean time it is possible to use the features of python 2.7 that allow an
easy update to python 3.3.
Note that even if we go python 3 we should set a minimum version, like say
python 3.2 or even python 3.3 if we are feeling lucky. :-)
In case of Fedora it has the most recent versions python 2.7.4 and python 3.3.1
(they are in the testing stage because it has been released this/last week).
The distribution default is yet python 2 and it will be at least for another
year.
Note that personally I have no problem going the python 3 route and if we
decide to go that way I will support it.
Isn't there some "import __future__" thing we can use to make this easy?
Or is that what is only in 2.7?
