As far as I have seen it, only minor changes had to be done after the 2to3.py script had been run. These had been mostly related to subprocess output (mostly for parsing git output). Since you probably don't parse output of a subprocess in these refactorings, I don't think you would have any problems at all. This should go into a branch, so we can easily merge in all changes we make. > > Regards > Ralf > regards, Patrick _______________________________________________ Kde-windows mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-windows
