Although there is a Python 3 compatible distribution of unittest2, which is
currently called unittest2py3k. (It is maintained as a set of patches
against CPython head - hence separate distributions for the same package
names). Python 2 Only is still applicable to unittest2, until / unless I
decide to use a single distribution for both.

My only worry is that the classifier would seem to indicate that there
*isn't* a Python 3 distribution available, when in fact there is.

All the best,

Michael
