A similar question is whether there should be buildbots for Python 3
itself (i.e. running the test suite). Even for that, it was considered
too early.

I would expect that packages break in massive ways because of the
by-design incompatibilities. It would be good to get an estimate
of what the impact is, but having a build once a month might be
more than enough. To fully study the problems, one has to install
Python 3 locally, anyway, and then run the package in question on
top of that.

Regards,
Martin
