Subject: [Python-porting] SGML parsing
Message-ID: <AANLkTik6Nzr4cV9_fbJNt40XkBL1N2FEar-T9_FTou+6@mail.gmail.com>

Hey everyone,

I was trying to port feedparser over to Python3.1 and I realized that
sgmllib had been deprecated from Python2.7 upward and subsequently removed.
Which alternatives would you suggest I use in Python3.1 to perform analogous
tasks?

Thanks,
zm

Hi Zubin,

I don?t know about 3.1, but in 3.2 the html.parser module has very
recently received improvements to make it more lax when needed, with
Beautiful Soup cited as example:
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-checkins/2010-December/100097.html

Apart from that, people say that lxml is the new Beautiful Soup.

Cheers

Subject: [Python-porting] help needed porting stuff to Python 3?
Message-ID: <589872.9492.qm@web33503.mail.mud.yahoo.com>

Very new to this mail list; sorry if I am asking naive questions!

Are there modules that still need to be ported to Python 3?

If so (and my impression is that there are), how would I go about exploring how to help?

I'm an experienced (i.e., "gray-haired" ;-)) programmer, somewhat new to Python.

Would be delighted to help in any way possible in ongoing porting efforts.

What about the OpenGL Python modules Pyglet and PyOpenGL?  Are there ongoing efforts that I could join or start participating in?

Or would there be something else that people would suggest looking at?

Thanks a million,

Greg

I don't think anyone here has a list of every project being ported.
You'll have to ask the maintainers of those modules. I'm sure they
will appreciate the help.

Nah. Go with what you use and think is good.

There is a list of projects that people would like to see ported:

http://www.python.org/
http://www.python.org/3kpoll

That doesn't mean that maintainers of these packages necessarily welcome
porting activities - only that users of the packages would
like to see them ported.

Regards,
Martin

There was a similar discussion on python-dev 3 weeks ago:
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2010-December/106228.html
Useful links are provided, including the poll Martin gave you.


Cheers,
Quentin
