Rob Salgado's excerpts from the Slashdot article didn't mention that
there will be a translation program to help with the conversion of
Python 2.x code into Python 3.0 code. Of course, no mechanical
translator is perfect, since the subtle logical incompatibilities may be
beyond the algorithms. I suspect that Python 2.6 will issue warnings
when it encounters code likely to be incompatible with 3.0.
