We should support both Python 2.7 and Python 3.5 natively, without needing to run the code through 2to3. This involves some changes to the code base.

    All the patchs should now be applied and a relase is pending.
    Stephen, could you check if something is still missing?

    The only thing I can see that's missing is the distutils -> setuptools conversion patch, but I guess that's a separate issue that can be handled as such.

    I've resubmitted the setuptools conversion patch in case you want to apply it. I think previous discussions suggested this was okay to do unless anyone objected, and I haven't seen any objections yet.

    Native Py3 is now supported in the latest stable release.

    The switch to setuptools is in r8484 and r8489.

    Closing this ticket. Thank you for the great work!
