As an alternative to the Bug Days William mentioned, we could hold a
workshop focused on porting Sage to Python 3 (this has apparently been a
frequent request for SMC).

All our dependencies have proper support for Python 3, so the main effort
at this point in time is porting the Sage library. A lot of effort has
already gone into fixing non-Python 3 compatible syntax and functionality
(see #15980 and #16052), although a decent amount of more effort is
required.

In particular, Sage currently relies a great deal on simple comparison (see
the recent discussion
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/sage-devel/4Ho98yUmzco), which is
no longer supported in Python 3. Some decision will have to be made on how
we want to adapt the coercion framework to only rely on rich comparison,
and how we want to handle classes that (currently) only support simple
comparison.
