Christophe Taton commented on AVRO-1382:
----------------------------------------

Okay! I'm actively working on lang/py3 in this branch: 
https://github.com/kryzthov/avro/tree/AVRO-1382
Since this would be a new API, I'd then like to take the opportunity to do some 
cleanup before pushing/releasing it.

> Hi,
> I'd need to use Avro from Python3, which would require essentially the 
> following changes, which I am happy to contribute:
>  - rewrite except statements according to new syntax
>  - rewrite print statements according to new syntax
>  - basestring becomes str
>  - update some imports (StringIO becomes io.StringIO, httplib becomes 
> http.client)
> This would apparently require branching the python code to maintain a version 
> for python2 and a separate version for python3.
> Any thoughts on how to approach this?
> Thanks!
