It looks like Vinay Sajip has succeeded in porting Django to Python3
(in a shared code base for Python 3.2 and Python 2.7). This is an
astoundingly good job, done very fast and is big news.
See https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/django-developers/XjrX3FIPT-U
and the actual code is at Bitbucket https://bitbucket.org/vinay.sajip/django
With NumPy and SciPy already ported, and with Matplotlib almost there,
maybe PIL and others will follow shortly. This could be a turning
point, or a milestone, or whatever you want to call it. Vinay is a
hero who should be thanked and congratulated!
In an infinitely less important note, Python411 podcasts are finally
back online after a three month occultation due to a prolonged and
ugly billing dispute with Libsyn. Maybe I can interview Vinay and
have him tell us about the porting effort!
