I was just looking over the README (literally two minutes ago, your message came in as I was wording up a reply), and Python 3 support does seem to be a bit of a hole in the support. To what extent does Cython make this easier? The biggest barrier I would expect to see is the bytes/text distinction, where a default quoted string has different meaning in the two versions - but like with performance guessing, this is much more likely to be wrong than right. Another, but much smaller, hole in the support would be installation via pip. I'd recommend getting the package listed on PyPI and then testing some pip installations on different platforms - chances are that's going to be the best way to do the builds. All the best!
