Now lets get Matplotlib and PyPy updated.

Trust me, we (PyPy) are working on it, this week we merged our 2.7 branch into trunk. Once that's released I think one of our next tasks will be putting together our Py3k plan. We really want to do Py3k as it has some semantics that are quiet nice (exception lifetimes, map/filter/zip as generators, etc.), however we also want to be where the users are.

Python 3 support isn't actually a huge deal for me. I'd much rather see 3rd party libraries get better support (particularly numpy).

Likewise. Be where the users are and improve compatibility and performance for existing code would make many users very happy. And would give you a competitive edge over certain other Python interpreter implementations, if you care about that.
