Subject: [Python-porting] A website to help Python 3 porting
Message-ID: <AANLkTikptAjHhqcGwHazjg-tjvvYhfU1Q0004JTG5xcG@mail.gmail.com>
Hi All,
I was working on a website to help porting libraries to Python 3:
http://getpython3.net/ Some of the BangPypers members also
helped me to develop this site:
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/bangpypers/2011-January/005746.html
I am looking forward to your feedback. I am interested to know
the features which will be useful for the developers.
I already have some feature in my todo list:
1) Tag (keyword/label) feature. So that users can add
tags like: fedora15, ubuntu1104, django, pylons, macos etc.
2) "feedback" script: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/feedback
This will provide a console script (setuptools based entry point)
which can be used to submit feedback directly from the
machine. In order to accomplish this I also want to
create a RESTful API: http://getpython3.net/api/1.0/newfeedback
4) Auto-detect the trove classifier (Programming Language :: Python :: 3)
and display it prominently, see this page:
http://pypi.python.org/pypi?:action=browse&c=533&show=all
5) Show the dependent distributions for a distribution (may be a tree)
If you have any other suggestion, please add the entry here
or reply to this mail:
https://github.com/baijum/getpython3/issues
If anyone interested to work on this project, let me know. You can create
forks and make pull requests here: https://github.com/baijum/getpython3
Regards,
Baiju M

Good idea, keep it going!

Subject: [Python-porting] The porting howto.
Message-ID: <AANLkTi=tneWBQVzsS7ymrXpEHbGYxb8t4DYEbEK77QXP@mail.gmail.com>
I just read Bretts new porting howto, and it's good, except for one
omission. The strategies section makes it sound like you can't use
2to3 to support both Python 2 and Python 3, while it in fact can be
easily supported by running 2to3 on build time with distutils or even
better Distribute. This should be mentioned, IMO.
Feel free to take parts of my Strategies chapter:

I'll fix the omission.

I had a chance to look at this and I see what you mean about the intro
being a little heavy-handed against 2to3. I have simplified it and
left the more thorough discussion in the various sectional discussions
cover the details.
I will see if Georg will let me slip this into Python 3.2.0.
