Hi Peter,

We've been using 1.2.4-DEV in production on Python 3 (currently 3.4.1)
since that branch was created and announced on the mailing list. We've
found it to be stable and reliable - we've got roughly 200'000 lines of
code (mixed Java JAXB and Python PyXB), and about 4700 lines of XML schema.
So we've been running a fairly large application in production with PyXB on
Python 3.x for quite a while now.

We have our own internal pypiserver with mirrors of the versions of the
packages we use, and created a 1.2.4-DEV PyPI package (probably 3.x only,
but we only use 3.x) and put it there.

I'd personally like to thank you for creating 1.2.4-DEV. Before that point,
PyXB was the only element in our stack that we could neither substitute
with another 3.x compantible product, or upgrade to a 3.x compatible
version. Even though it wasn't tagged as a production release, we found it
stable, and it allowed us to upgrade to 3.x.

Michael: We also backported the RPMs for Python 3.4.1 from RawHide to RHEL
6. It took us a day to figure it out, but that's also in production now,
and served out of our internal yum repo. I gather that updated Python
packages wouldn't usually qualify for EPEL, but given given python3-* isn't
in the base RHEL 6 distro I'm guessing it may qualify.

Regards,
Nathan.
