Hi,

Moving to Python 3 is a must!

As for Web2py I have several servers using it (one of them is an ERP) and I don't know when I will have time to move them to Py4web, so I beg you not to drop Web2py support.

Best regards,
Carlos

It is very encouraging to know people have moved to python 3. :-)

        Hello everybody,

        You may have noticed I am not very active on this mailing list. That
        is mostly because I have been concentrating my energy on py4web which
        I think is must more modern and faster than web2py.

        Once again I want to encourage you to move.


    I am interested in moving, but I keep leaving corners on my tuits.  I
    don't seem to get them round.

    BTW, does the javascript for the views have support for a) session storage
    and b) identifying tabs?
    [...]

        web2py currently works for python2.7 and python3.7+ but they are using
        a frozen version of pydal. This no longer works on Google App Engine.
        So how do we fix it?

        I am considering the following:
        - freezing web2py for Python 2.7 and stopping support.
        - continuing limited support of web2py for python3.7+ and specifically
        upgrade pydal for the lastest.
        - upgrade pydal so that it continues to work on Google App Engine for
        both web2py and py4web.

        My questions are: Is this worth it? Have people moved from python2.7
        to 3.7+ already? Are people here interested in continuing to use
        web2py with GAE?

    I'm no longer supporting a production instance of a web2py app  but I have
    a small public hobby app on digital ocean (python reasonably current 3.x),
    and some personal toy apps which I maybe will make somewhat useful for
    other people.  The toys are running on 3.10.7 on windows using the source
    package (still on 2.22.5 for the moment).

    I've been meaning to file a bug report; one of the tuits is supposed to be
    for writing up the details, but basically at some point in version history
    the admin panel stopped sending all the required info needed to make the
    "next 100" button work.  The resulting page has an empty query box, an
    error message "cannot be empty", and a url like
    "[...]/appadmin/select/db?start=100". This issue seems to have been in
    since at least 2.21.x, maybe longer.

    I've very much enjoyed using web2py over the years, beginning with a
    development lab application for controlling test equipment.  I had a need
    for SOAP, and whatever package I used led me to web2py (likely
    pysimplesoap, but I don't have my lab notes since that lab was closed). 
    Eventually I was using web2py for providing a repository for customer
    dumps used by the support team. And of course, it grew features like
    being  an update server for product firmware and applications.  Ah, fun.

    I keep reading the py4web Google Group, so I have some idea of what goes
    on with the New Kid, but still working from my comfort zone.
