Just to be clear: you're asking specifically about the 0-10 based
impl_qpid.py driver, correct?   This is the driver that is used for
the "qpid://" transport (aka rpc_backend).

I ask because I'm maintaining the AMQP 1.0 driver (transport
"amqp://") that can also be used with qpidd.

However, the AMQP 1.0 driver isn't yet Python 3 compatible due to its
dependency on Proton, which has yet to be ported to python 3 - though
that's currently being worked on [1].

I'm planning on porting the AMQP 1.0 driver once the dependent
libraries are available.

What's the expected date on this as it appears this also blocks python 3 work as well... Seems like that hasn't been updated since nov 2014 which doesn't inspire that much confidence (especially for what appears to be mostly small patches).

Hello! There's been some recent progress on python3 compatibility for
core libraries that OpenStack depends on[1], and this is likely to open
the flood gates for even more python3 problems to be found and fixed.

Recently a proposal was made to make oslo.messaging start to run python3
tests[2], and it was found that qpid-python is not python3 compatible yet.

This presents us with questions: Is anyone using QPID, and if so, should
we add gate testing for it? If not, can we deprecate the driver? In the
most recent survey results I could find [3] I don't even see message
broker mentioned, whereas Databases in use do vary somewhat.

Currently it would appear that only oslo.messaging runs functional tests
against QPID. I was unable to locate integration testing for it, but I
may not know all of the places to dig around to find that.

So, please let us know if QPID is important to you. Otherwise it may be
time to unburden ourselves of its maintenance.
