As for docs and tutorials, I wrote one myself for the PSF Sprints group at http://docs.pythonsprints.com/python3_porting/ http://docs.pythonsprints.com/python3_porting/. Brett Cannon just came out with http://docs.python.org/dev/howto/pyporting.html http://docs.python.org/dev/howto/pyporting.html a few weeks ago. Both of these docs have a references section which lists a number of other porting guides that we borrowed from. Library support is so-so. It's actually surprising how many libs out there could be have an initial port completed in an hour. I would encourage anyone to look at a dependency of theirs, run it through 2to3, then see what it does. Sometimes it's as easy as making a few fixes and it runs fine. Obviously there are complicated projects out there where this isn't true, but I don't think there needs to be any distinction between amateur and professional porting levels. Just go for it. As I said in another post, taken from the movie Field of Dreams: "if you build it, they will come."
