On a related note:
Just this week a group appeared in Fedora with objective to help port
3rd party modules to Python 3. There is even a dedicated mailing list
(python-porting). They are actively seeking contributors from across the
distributions so I am sure any devs that want to see Python 3 default on
Gentoo will be welcome :-)
