I think Yuval is asking that the pypi page for docutils be updated to have::

  Programming Language :: Python :: 3

as well as::

  Programming Language :: Python :: 2

I'm not sure if that's right, though -- I just checked the docutils page and
it has ::

  Programming Language :: Python

which seems to be a valid method of marking a module as belonging to
multiple sub-categories.

(This thread has some other ideas as well, but those don't directly impact
docutils)
