Hello Jerome, thank you for you answer. I am not sure, how difficult could it be to switch the Yade or to add a support of Python3. The syntax of python 2 and 3 is not so different. One can find a lot of such migration tutorials.
It would probably be more problematic two support both versions simultaneously as to make a complete migration.
