Python 3.0 unfit for serious work?

     There's always the possiblity that Python 3 won't happen.  Look at
what happened with Perl 6.  That's been talked about for
seven years now.  The user base just wasn't interested.
Perl 5 was good enough, and users migrated to PHP for the
little stuff and other languages for the bigger stuff.
As Wikipedia says, "As of 2007, Perl 6 was still under development,
with no planned completion date."
