> Python 3.0 seriously would just ignore filenames Why are you worried about python 3.0?

  You have to look at Python 3.0 to get a good understanding of what happened with the Python 3.x transition, as that was the critical moment that set the mentality of how people were going to view the people telling everyone "you need to port your stuff to Python 3"; when you see that some of the underlying complexity and issues still aren't fixed in 3.4 from the same decision, it is damming to the argument that Python 3 was really solving a real world problem at all. If nothing else, it means you have to start the transition clock not when Python 3 was first released, but from when it first manages to not be horribly worse than Python 2 by reasonably objective measures.
