For me (and I suspect quite a lot of other people), PyPy and CPython 3 both suffer from the same problem: lack of support for third-party libraries. Moving to Py3k would only exacerbate that problem for PyPy, removing their current support for the likes of Django and Twisted.
- sho_hn 16y agoI'd assume they'd very likely keep up support for Python 2.7.x for quite some time past the first py3k-compatible release, similar to what CPython is doing. Although personally I actually wouldn't mind giving up one for the other, as that would allow PyPy to act as an extra incentive to drive py3k adoption in third-party libraries. Of course I understand if the PyPy developers don't just want to use their hard work as a gaming piece to drive the py3k adoption agenda, though :).
