This seems to me to be a watershed release. 3.4 is the point where we should move en masse to Python 3 for software development. At the same time, we should conciously abandon the default distro installed Python. Leave that for sysadmin tasks and sysadmin scripting, but for actual applications, install Python 3.4 in a virtualenv and use that going forward. By now you should only occasionally run into non-ported libraries and the details of how to port them are well enough known that you should be able to do the job yourself if you run into one that is important to you.
