Hi!

Sorry for off-topic.

What is the motivation behind creation of Foolscap (newpb)? What does it solve that can't be solved by old PB?

Thank you

Is there some sort of upper bound on when PB would be available for 
Python3.3? I am hoping to use it for a Python3 project.

As with any development, it will happen when people do it. :)  Twisted 
development is almost entirely on a volunteer basis, and people mostly 
work on what they personally want to work on.

If you're wondering who's currently working on porting PB to Python 3, I 
don't think anyone is.

Hi Abhishek,

_You_ could always contribute a port of PB to Python 3.  PB is itself a pretty self-contained module with not many dependencies outside of what's already been ported.  Porting it to Python 3 should be relatively straightforward, and the existing python 3 ports should provide a good example of how to do it.
