I don't know what sort of QA process it would need to go through, but could
we look at doing a parallel release of IPython on Python 3? As it stands, it
would have to just be the plain terminal version, but I think that's still
valuable. I'm fairly happy that that side is working, and it passes all the
automated tests.

The Qt frontend is tantalisingly close to working, largely thanks to MinRK's
work with pyzmq, and I hope I can clear the remaining roadblocks soon, but I
don't know if it will be ready in a month. And if the new HTML frontend can
work with it too, that's just icing on the cake.

Thanks,
Thomas
