Hello,
except for the rather surprising usage of Py3k-only for tox (which is not
mentioned in the package description) while still using the python- format, that
can cause problems when installing packages with are not py3k-ready; real world
example is OpenStack Nova (https://github.com/openstack/nova.git) where to
generate its documentation you need to run 'tox -e docs', result is:
...

which is caused by https://pypi.python.org/pypi/wsgiref be usable only on py <
3.2; that also mean that tox being only py3k aware, it tries to use a py3k
stack, which cannot be assure to be always possible.
As a proof of this problem I tried installin a 2.7 tox version and the wsgiref
installation is passed without any problems.
Can a "conservative" 2.x version be shipped too?
Regards,
Sandro
