Oh, I was not denying that.  The original post on reddit to which I 
commented was called "Is PEP 3333 the final solution for WSGI on Python 
3" :)

I think the main problem is that we are all incredible happy with Python 
2 currently and Python 3 is not very convincing at the moment.  Unleaden 
Swallow also did not exactly deliver to it's promises lately, but PyPy 
seems to be doing quite well lately, and due to it's nature it would be 
unrealistic to assume it switches to Python 3 anytime soon.  (It's one 
of the largest Python 2 codebases)

I have to admit that my interest in Python 3 is not very high and I am 
most likely not the most reliable person when it comes to driving PEP 444 :)
