I just saw that Brian May added some commits in the SVN to add Python3

Brian, what's left to do before the upload?

See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=736878

Basically everything is done, except I uploaded to DELAYED/10 - I have been told I have should have made a normal non-delayed upload, it will be delayed in NEW anyway. Not yet had a chance to fix this. If it is possible for somebody else to alter the position first, please do so.

BTW, I saw that you've added some Suggests: for packages which do not
exist yet in Debian (like python3-mysqldb, python3-psycopg,
python3-flup, and probably some more). Should we try to add Python 3
support to these first? Are they Python 3.4 compatible?

I basically copied and edited the entries for the Python2 version :-)

I personally will need python3-mysqldb, python3-psycopg, and python3-flup (or equivalent).

django-south will be included in Django 1.7, and as such will have Python 3 support. They have just released 1.7RC1, so it should be too much longer before 1.7 is released.
