I did this months ago, when doing PEP 405 venv development was getting old fast because of the 2to3 delay: https://bitbucket.org/vinay.sajip/distribute3 It's been mentioned on this list, but none of the distribute maintainers appear to have picked up on it. It's been a short while (10 Jan 2013) since I synchronised with the main repo, but it typically doesn't take all that long to do. All the tests pass whenever I merge upstream changes, but I'm not sure how much confidence the maintainers have about test coverage and whether all tests passing means enough for them to release into the wild.
