I agree. Writing an actual *guide* can wait, but documenting the
differences with code examples is a work that can start now, and I
agree that it would be great if this would start now.
But writing a guide might not be a good idea until we know what the
changes are, and if the API is changing quickly now we don't. :-)
I'm working on getting a version of PyCXX working with Python 3.0.
The lack of any docs outside of the header files is making this a slow
process.
I think its a mistake to expect a serious beta test of extensions
when you have no guide to the changes in the C API.
If you had a guide then diff it between releases would be a guide to
what need fixing up going from beta to beta to rc.
Oh and I'm not going to try and make a version of PyCXX that works
on 2.x and 3.x as the changes are too fundamental.
