That is underspecified for the issue at hand: What *specifically* should PyPI look for to determine 3.0 support in a package, and how *specifically* should it display that? An alternative to specifying dependencies would be to specify a classifier, e.g. Programming Language :: Python :: 3 or Programming Langauge :: Python3 Then, no changes to PyPI are needed (except for adding the classifier to the database), and searching for Python-3-supporting packages could go through http://pypi.python.org/pypi?%3Aaction=browse Regards, Martin _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
