Awesome, good to see this move forward. However, what is the django ecosystem support like?

  Obviously the Django ecosystem can't start supporting Python 3 until Django itself does. The porting process (which is still in progress for Django) shouldn't be too difficult for most pluggable applications, as Django strongly encourages using unicode everywhere.

  That's the next step - authors of 3rd party apps will need to port their code. We've started putting together some documentation to help authors write single-source code (i.e. code that runs on both 2.6+ and 3.2+). The idea is that they'll use the tools we did, plus the things we learned, to port their apps. https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/python3/ https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/python3/ is a start on that documentation, and hopefully we can flesh it out even more for 1.5.
