Doug Cutting commented on AVRO-1382:
------------------------------------
One more thing to update relevant to releases are the publishing instructions
for PyPi. These are in:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/AVRO/How+To+Release#HowToRelease-Publishing
We need to add instructions here for publishing the Python 3 release artifacts.

> 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!
