Python 3.0 is determined not to be hampered by backwards incompatibility 
concerns. It's not even clear yet that your average 2.6 code will work 
on 3.0 -- though there's a pretty large contingent trying to make this true.

In short, if you need to support 2.3, you're not ready to be looking at 3.0.
