Alex Goodman commented on CLIMATE-969:
--------------------------------------
[~lewismc] This issue is referring to cases for the subfolders under climate
rather than the OCW library itself. When we worked to make ocw python3
compatible, we didn't really prioritize the other subfolders so I am not
surprised that this is coming up now. I think this speaks to a larger issue we
currently have which is the sheer number of subfolders we have under the
apache/climate repo which are not directly part of OCW. Other than the RCMES
subfolder, none of them have been maintained at all, and some of them do not
even call any code from the OCW library at all. Rather, the climate repo has
sort of been used as a dumping ground for anything related to RCMES including
these very old examples.
Personally, I think the apache/climate repository should only contain the ocw
library, tests, API documentation, and API examples. Everything else is either
longtime deprecated code or old related projects with the exception of the
RCMES folder. I am thinking even that should be maintained separately from
ocw/climate, though doing so might break a lot of existing examples so we could
hold off on that. If we don't get rid of them, I think we should at least keep
them inside a separate branch from master. This is not just about keeping
things tidy, as I also think having all of this outdated stuff everywhere can
confuse new users and contributors when they find stuff that doesn't work or
are trying to figure out where to contribute. Perhaps you, me, and Kyo should
have a meeting between the three of us after we get back from our upcoming trip
so we can discuss the specifics. We also need to talk about releasing the ocw
replacement I have developed for the past two years to open source, as that is
now on the horizon too.

> Project: Apache Open Climate Workbench
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: general
> Reporter: Bryer Jeannotte
> Priority: Minor
>
> There still exists, throughout the project, the use of print statements
> instead of print functions which make using python3 impossible, since that is
> considered a syntax error.
>
> Adding the import
> {code:java}
> from __future__ import print_statement{code}
> at the top of the file, and switching statements to functions, will allow the
> use of python 2 and 3.
