Port to Python 3.2. Should remain compatible with 2.5, but not older. This requires porting (or replacing) any Pyramid dependencies that aren't already ported too. Ideally, ports would not require a "translation" (via 2to3 or 3to2) but instead would use a single codebase that will run under 2 and 3 (perhaps with the help of the "six" library).

Unported Pyramid dependencies

  • WebOb (Joe Dallago: GSOC 2011 project, Chris McDonough picked up porting work, docs and testing work still remains, but webob trunk at https://github.com/Pylons/webob has basic 3.2 support)
  • WebTest (not ported, but new maintainer; maybe he'll port; or we can replace.. it's only used in tests)

Dependencies that need replacing (won't port)

Already-ported Pyramid dependencies

  • Chameleon (already worked under Py2.5 and Py3.2)
  • Mako (already worked under Py2.4-Py3.2)
  • MarkupSafe (already worked under Py2.4-Py3.2)
  • translationstring (merged jayd3e's py3 branch to trunk, released as 0.4)
  • venusian (jbohman ported, released as 1.0a1)
  • zope.interface (ported as of 3.6.0+)
  • repoze.lru (jbohman ported, released as 0.4)
  • zope.deprecation (chrism ported, released as 3.5.0)

Pyramid dependencies removed (and thus dont need to be ported)

  • zope.component (jbohman factored out "zope.registry" and placed it in zope SVN; also see https://mail.zope.org/pipermail/zope-dev/2011-August/043340.html, this code was later moved to zope.interface in version 3.8.0)
  • zope.configuration (removed core dependency on this in Pyramid 1.2a5+; still dep'ed on by pyramid_zcml)
  • zope.i18nmessageid (transitive dep of zope.configuration; removed z.config dep in Pyramid 1.2a5+)
  • zope.schema (transitive dep of zope.configuration; removed z.config dep in Pyramid 1.2a5+)
  • zope.event (transitive dep of zope.component, will remove zope.component dep)
