Re: [pywin32-checkins] py3k status

[Mark H. <mha...@sk...>]

I found some more time today.  The trunk is in pretty good shape for 2to3.
I recently took the approach of taking a clean checkout of the trunk,
running 2to3 over it, then diffing the result with the .py files in the py3k
branch.  As a result I merged a number of changes back to both the trunk and
that branch, so the vast majority of differences that remain are byte and
similar issues.  

In other words, the .py files in the trunk and in the py3k branch are very
close to being identical after being run through 2to3.  This seems like a
good sign :)  The bzr py3k integration branch should also be up-to-date wrt
these .py files.

This time I *really* will not find more time for a week or 2 :)

Cheers,

Mark
