Doug Cutting commented on AVRO-1382:
------------------------------------

We're getting there!  Now most of the tests pass, except all the tests in 
test_script.py fail with:

{code}
testMultiFile (avro.tests.test_script.TestWrite) ... Traceback (most recent 
call last):
  File "/home/cutting/src/avro/trunk/lang/py3/scripts/avro", line 32, in 
<module>
    import avro
ImportError: No module named 'avro'
ERROR
{code}

> 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!
