---
[~Abhism] you should join the dev mailing list at
[https://lists.apache.org/list.html?d...@allura.apache.org] and introduce
yourself. That's the best place to ask questions about Allura. I would
recommend first installing Allura and getting it running so you can be familiar
with it. Then you could try upgrading one dependency from requirements.txt at
a time, and see if everything works and tests pass still. That'd be a good
starting task to try.

> Allura is a large mature codebase, and relies on many dependencies. The path
> to python 3 will have many steps, but we need to start working on it. GSOC
> work would include familiarizing with porting guides like
> [https://docs.python.org/3/howto/pyporting.html] and
> [https://portingguide.readthedocs.io/en/latest/] and
> [http://python3porting.com/] and then working through steps like:
> * upgrading dependencies, and updating code & tests to match
> * removing or replacing dependencies where needed, and updating code
> * running futurize or modernize, manual code changes where needed, cleanup,
> etc
> * testing
> * documentation updates
> * Docker updates
> * more, probably :)
