The language/interpreter is just fine.  The biggest problem is 3rd party
modules.  My own module (APSW) has been available since the early betas of
Python 3 and I make it available for Python 2.3 onwards.

I have a release every month or two, and so you can see adoption trends for
Windows users over time:

Python 2.6 is by far the most popular, but 3.1 is picking up.  It is
disturbing just many 2.3 users there still are though.
