Hi Thomas, I'm not aware of any specific efforts to push Python 3 porting. Like Django itself, the ecosystem of Django (and Python) packages is organised by volunteers, so unless volunteers spend the time and effort to port, nothing gets done. You're ahead of the curve in porting all your Django code to Python 3; the rest of the community hasn't had the same set of itches, so they haven't caught up yet.
Speaking on behalf of the DSF -- if anyone has any good ideas on how we could speed up this process, let me know. In the meantime, if you want Python 3 ports of these projects, remember that this is open source, so you can make it happen. Fork their repos, and give them patches. I'm sure they wouldn't object to the help. Yours, Russ Magee %-) On Fri, Feb 15, 2013 at 4:35 PM, Thomas Weholt <[email protected]>wrote: > Hi, > > As a Norwegian user of Django and python user I've spent countless > hours dealing with unicode-problems.
