I am intensively using 2to3.py. So I have 2 codebase: one in py2 and the 
other in py3. When changing the code I have to do things to 2 separate 
codebase in the repository. There are no patch2to3 or patch3to2, So I 
thought that for ensuring the common functionality of both version it 
would be nice to bring both versions into a common codebase. So I can 
update only one code and automate builds and tests for both versions.
