I could spend my time trying to change all my Trac instances to a

converting the trunk code to be python 3 compatible (dropping support
for python 2 all together). After 6 hours hacking on the codebase I
got myself a 'hello world' version of Trac on Python3.

Sounds great! Have you considered attaching your patch to a ticket so
it does not get lost?

Also, are you aware of this ticket:
https://trac.edgewall.org/ticket/12130#comment:51
It points to rjollos.git@t12130_python3.1 as the latest (but probably
far from up-to-date) status at porting Trac to Python3.
How does your patch compare to that?
I did not bother with any Python 2 compatibility, as such did not use
the six library. Secondly the pointed rjollos.git@t12130_python3.1
seemed rather old and outdated and using python 3.1 as base version.
Since I am no trac-developer, I 'trusted' svn@trunk
(https://svn.edgewall.org/repos/trac/trunk/) to be the latest, how-ever
this is just a lucky guess by me.
Basically I first processed all files with ``2to3'' (the python2 to
python3 converter tooling) and next I fixed issues which mainly involved
changes with python3 default representation of strings and continued
doing so until I could load the first WikiStart without errors on the
console and log file.
Kind regards,
Rick
