I'm not sure there's any settling at all when it comes to Python 3 porting yet. ;) Sometimes, one code base works better, other times 2to3 works well. I tend to use the latter on pure-Python setuptools-based projects, and the former on projects with C extensions, autoconf-based libraries. -Barry _______________________________________________ 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
