A better option, and one that I have been using is to use python-modernize that 
uses 2to3 to highlight the places where the code should be changed while at the 
same time remaining compatible between python 2 and python 3.

The ideas are sketched here

and python-modernize can be found here

Some other points regarding the conversion can be found here
