I should point out that the entire point of twisted-depgraph is to help Twisted 
developers - basically, you and Craig - understand the dependencies remaining 
and port more things to py3.  So I'm pretty sure Aaron would not mind at all if 
he had to update it :).  It's not really a user-facing application, just a core 
developer tool.

No problem!  I have a little tool that imports dist3 myself, and it  is _super_ 
encouraging to see the percentages of ported code these days.
