Python 3 can't just be better than 2.x to get those package distributions ported, it's gotta be substantially better.
One way to make it substantially better is to get the new [Distribute](http://pypi.python.org/pypi/distribute http://pypi.python.org/pypi/distribute) finished and fast-tracked into 3.x (Distribute is a replacement for setuptools).
