On that note, ZODB gets much praise (and use) from Chris McDonough, so its porting would help.

If there’s example code that depends only on Pyramid (or a small number of packages that support Python 3, such as Deform or SQLAlchemy), then it’s reasonable to do so. If it is sample code that relies on some other packages, or if it is a Pyramid project with a different maintainer, we’ll need to do some work to convince others to port.

One thing that would help a lot is porting code/documentation that is under the Pylons project (https://github.com/Pylons). It can be a hindrance at this time, since there is much example code there that would be useful to learn, but only runs on Python 2. Even in the main docs, the stuff blessed as “sample apps” runs only on 2: https://pyramid.readthedocs.org/en/master/#sample-applications.

You’re right Danny, and I think it’s in all our interests for each framework’s progress on Python 3 to be promoted. It will take a broad effort, IMO, to convince web developers that Python 3 has tipped. I’ll do my best to track the goings-on in Django and pimp the progress.

Hi Luke, thanks for commenting. As I work on this, feel free to comment on any important oversights.

Although lots of commercial projects will still be running on python 2.6/2.7, I think it’s great idea, might give the necessary kick to start, at least testing.

I think that’s an excellent idea, Paul. I’m building a new site, and I could use Pyramid and Python3 to build it.

I think that the faster we move as a programming community to Python 3 the better. Which means that for me, Pyramid’s moving to Python 3 focused documentation would be a good thing.
