I remember. I had a few issues: it was not done with mercurial, there
was no unit test, but the main (external) issue was that the compiler package
was becoming obsolete. So I didn't want to add further conversion features
until the move to the ast package was completed. But this is done now (in
development), so we can proceed now. However, take into account that
you need Python 2.6 for development. (We need the ast package functionality
from that version.)

Use your expertise and do it again, this time with ast :-)
(I realize it feels redundant. However, I just had to do this for
*all* convertor code, so you'll forgive me.)

No, just install mercurial and follow the guidelines here:

The whole world (including Python itself) seems to be moving to
mercurial these days, so I'm confident that we made the right
choice. So in any case, it's not a waste of your time.
To contribute changesets, follow the guidelines here:

I have listed the conditional expression support as an open task:
