Comment(by robinson):

 Damian,

 Some comments:
  1. remember to allow for specifying the python3 binary location
  2. run_tests.py also needs to be run through 2to3
  3. there are several cross-version changes I believe can be had now

 For 2 (above), maybe python3 testing should be a separate command?  For
 example, a shell script which does:
 {{{
 mkdir python3-tests
 2to3 --write --no-diffs --nobackups --write-unchanged-files --output-
 dir=python3-tests stem test run_tests.py
 ( cd python3-tests; $PYTHON3 ./run_tests.py )
 }}}

 For 3 (above): are you interested in some low-hanging Py2->Py3 fruit?  For
 example:
 {{{
 - import Queue
 + import Queue as queue
 }}}
 and change Queue.Queue initializations to queue.Queue.  Then only one line
 (the import statement) is changed by 2to3 (because the Queue module was
 renamed to queue in Py3).
