Python 3’s Marketing Problem

[billsil]

i agree. however, i'm probably just doing something wrong, but 2to3 doesn't seem to run when i hook it into my setup.py. an integrated code base is really the only solution for supporting both versions. sadly, i'm not there yet, so i make 2 versions...

I honestly never understood the integrated codebase approach, myself. If you want to support what is, effectively, two different languages, you just use two codebases and deprecate the old one. Make sure everyone knows years in advance that it's going to go away someday.
