I will look into this myself in the coming days and see what exactly has to be done. One major branch was Mateusz' polys, I am glad that this is in now and now I need to look into the core. The main idea why we need the new assumptions is so that the core becomes simpler and thus we can start cythonizing it and making it faster. And also more robust (e.g. removing caching). The py2to3 would be an excellent project though, since I believe anyone can do that and it has to be done too.
