I'm not going to rehash everything Vernon says below, but I will say that as someone who maintains a module which installs and runs on Python 2.4 - 3.2, Vernon's comments are spot on. We first started supporting Python 3.0 almost immediately after its release and we had a few misconceptions going

Another vote to python3 :-) Really, I started to port that with a recursive 2to3. It is not too far from good working. There are no big magic things, altough I think a py2 and py3 support isn't possible from a common source tree. Some deep core improvement is needed too, mostly on the unicode line
