The only thing that's keeping me from switching is Django (currently 1.3), which is on Python 2.5-2.7. It might be some time before they migrate to Python 3. Alex Gaynor mentioned that he'd like to work on porting Django to Python 3 this summer, noting that an end-of-summer port is not an official position of the Django developers (2nd link): http://alexgaynor.net/2009/nov/28/django-and-python-3/ http://alexgaynor.net/2009/nov/28/django-and-python-3/ http://alexgaynor.net/2011/feb/17/django-and-python-3-take-2/ http://alexgaynor.net/2011/feb/17/django-and-python-3-take-2... I don't believe Django has officially announced when they will move to Python 3, or what version of Django that'll occur with. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong. Currently though, I'm not sure if Django "needs" Python 3 all that badly. Eventually yes, but not necessarily right now; Python 2 is still quite popular.
