These are great news! I hope you succeed in such a short time frame!

I have one major feature to land: single instance mode (discussed on Issue 466), which will let people open python files in the same window using the file explorer. I've been developing it since the summer and it has given me a lot of headaches to make it work right, but I'm almost done with it.

There is also the debugger toolbar developed by Jed and showing rich help on a thread by Steve. I'll try to review and merge them as soon as possible.

Pierre, maybe you would like to take a look at the six library

http://pypi.python.org/pypi/six

to use it as a compatibility module.

Cheers,
Carlos

Hi all,

FYI, in order to release WinPython for Python 3 very soon, I'm
currently working on porting to Python 3 the "blocking" packages
listed here:
http://code.google.com/p/winpython/wiki/PackageIndex_33

My goal is to finish this work before the end of the first week of
January 2013... because I'm doing this while on vacation.

I've currently ported to Python 3 the following libraries:
   * formlayout (one script... quite easy!)
   * winpython (quite easy too because I've wrote this package with
quite specific coding rules)
   * guidata (a little bit harder)

I've wrote a compatibility module in guidata: guidata/py3compat.py.
My strategy is to work on a single code base and to make it compatible
with both Python 2 and Python 3.

I'm currently working on guiqwt.
So the next library I'll take care of will be... spyderlib!

This means that we should have Python 3 support, at least unstable,
for January 2013.


Important:
---------

This also means that if there is any important merge to do with the
main branch, now is the time. Because porting to Python 3 implies a
lot of changes that could turn into nightmare any pending merge!


Cheers,
-Pierre
