This brings up a bigger question:
Even though, most ported packages are fully Python 3 compatible, they might depend on packages that are not ready to get a final release. Those two are:
* zope.security 4.0.0 (pending PyPy support from Tres) * ZODB 4.0.0 (I am currently using an sdist of the py3 branch.)
Any package that depends directly or indirectly on those two packages has an alpha release right now. Strictly speaking this is not necessary for any package not depending on ZODB (ZODB is special because the dep changes from ZODB3 to ZODB).
If it is okay with everyone, we could change the releases to their final version numbers with the understanding that Python 3 support will not be available until all dependencies have their final release. Python 2 should work just fine once we get the trunk builds back to green.
I'm not a fan of non-alpha versions of packages depending on alpha versions of other packages, so -0.5. Marius Gedminas -- http://pov.lt/ -- Zope 3/BlueBream consulting and development
