Chamikara Jayalath commented on BEAM-1373:
------------------------------------------

This is for 2to3 conversion which I think only a part of Python3 support. Other 
work will include, for example, porting dependencies and adding tests.

We did run 2to3 conversion and learnt that that many of our tests are failing 
due to various reasons :) We fixed about half of the tests but did not complete 
(or commit) it. Also we found that httplib2 and google-apitools are hard 
dependencies for GCP runner that are still in Python2 so until those are ported 
we'll only be able to support DirectRunner with Python 3.



> Update Python SDK code to support both Python 2 and 3
