wxPython 4.0 (Phoenix) is released now. It would be great if Taskcoach could support Python 3 and wxPython 4, as Python 2 is on its way to retirement.

    Any updates on plans for supporting Python 3? Fedora is planning to retire Python 2 soon.

      Sorry to say, there's no updates at this time. The intention Jerome has stated is to migrate to PyQt. It may be easier to update to wxPython 4, but either way the transition to Python 3 is necessary.

      I too really want to see this happen. I'm not sure what it will take. With enough time and/or budget, it would be possible to find other people to do or help the update, and all volunteer help is welcome (whether coding or recruiting coders). As is, Jerome is the only one in a good place in understanding to be able to do the work, and it's a matter of him making the time to get to it.

    Hi, more than 7 years later (from this issue ticket), I'm excited to tell you that https://github.com/taskcoach/taskcoach now has updated Python3 Task Coach codebase! Packages are available for some common Linux systems and we can add more.

    If you are able to help, even just testing and reporting bugs, please check it out!
