PySide is not yet Python 3 compatible---however PySide's API is like PyQt's Python 3 API, so PySide code should be a lot easier to port from Python 2 to 3 than PyQt... > Your current project of book "Programming in Go" - what is Go? > As a chess enthusiast I know "Go" as a wonderful game that in > Japan is considered far superior to chess, but suspect that it > is not what your book is going to be aboutt :) Go is a new open source programming language being developed by Google programmers: http://golang.org/ It has some high level features (UTF-8 strings, maps which are like Python dicts and slices which are like Python lists), and a very nice approach to concurrency based on communication rather than shared memory. But it is also quite a low level C-ish language with pointers. Anyway, I think it is v. interesting and fun to use. > Best of luck with your endeavours, Thank you; and the same for you:-) -- Mark Summerfield, Qtrac Ltd, www.qtrac.eu C++, Python, Qt, PyQt - training and consultancy "Programming in Go" - ISBN 0321774639 http://www.qtrac.eu/gobook.html _______________________________________________ PySide mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pyside.org/listinfo/pyside
