Hi,

I am hoping that at some point this year there will be a PySide for
Python 3?

Me too. :-)

That's definitely on our roadmap, but with the Shiboken schedules already slipping, it's a bit premature to say when the core team will be able to allocate time for it.

Adding Python 3 CPython API code generation support to Shiboken sounds like a perfect project for some enterprising Python hacker. ;-)

If there is, will it support PyQt's API 2 (which IMO is nicer than the
API 1 provided by PySide and PyQt for Python 2)?

I have to admit I've had very limited experience on the PyQt's API v2 other than reading through the relevant reference pages. They'd generally seem like the right thing (apart from the implementation-specific way of selecting the API version) but since these changes would imply making slightly incompatible API modifications between PySide versions, I'd really prefer making an reasoned decision using the PSEP process [1].

Also, with my very limited experience on the API changes, I don't feel comfortable about being the champion for that PSEP. Anyone willing to take the ball? It shouldn't be too much work to write the proposal.

I'd really like to convert all my PyQt apps to Python 3, and ideally I'd
like them all to work with both PyQt and PySide with as few changes as
possible to account for the differences (i.e., just having an import
that tries for one and falls back to the other).

Yep, that'd definitely be a preferable goal.

Cheers,

ma.
