Oh, alright - making PyGreSQL Python 2.6 compatible will in any case reduce the amount of work necessary to make it 3.0 compatible considerably. I've been watching the list for roughly 6 months now and I understand that you guys are really busy currently (never seen so many commits like last month). I'm currently in the process of converting some major projects (many of which use PyGreSQL) to Python 3.0 to make the transition seamless wheneven 2.x is deprecated (granted, that might be a while) - and I *really* like where the language is going. That's where my personal interest lies - unfortunately I didn't think it would be such a great deal, but it is. > @D'Arcy: At the risk of being annoying, please consider switching to SVN > before we start branching etc. because that would make such things (at > least for me) a bit simpler.

Last time I checked I only found that web frontend - nothing serious. I'd really like to help and push things and be it only by testing stuff. I'm really a C/C++ programmer and quite a Python newbie (started around a year ago). If there's any way in which I might contribute something useful, please let me know.
