Hi,

I read that python 3k is now in its final beta version. I was wondering
when we can expect the major packages to make a 3.0 branch.

I am myself quite new to python, and would like to make the
transition as soon as possible, simply because it would save me
porting code later, and I can focus on learning just the python 3.0.

However, I am a former Matlab user and depend on packages like
numpy, scipy, matplotlib. wxPython I use as well.

So to get to the point:
When can we expect these (and other) packages to release their
python 3k versions? And when will the majority of people make the
transition to py3k?

I am looking forward to your thoughts on this,

Almar
