Here's a small wsgi server converted in the other thread.

I've also applied 2to3 to it so you can see what it does.  Below are
links to diffs as well.

Note, this doesn't show the following things converted with 2to3:
    - wsgi application.
    - an application from a framework layered on top(eg cherrypy).
    - wsgi middleware.

sneaky.py
    - original python 2.x wsgi 1.0 server.

sneaky3.py
    - conversion done by hand.

sneaky3_from2to3.py
    - conversion from 2to3 (python 3.1 version of the script)

(diffs for your comparison).

sneaky_2to3.diff
    - a diff from sneaky.py and the 2to3 tool applied.
