Pygments |
yes |
blinker |
yes |
docutils |
yes |
markdown |
yes |
pytest |
yes |
sphinx |
yes |
whoosh |
yes |
Babel |
|
Jinja2 |

Flask |
not yet, maybe easy (depends on werkzeug, see flask sprint branch) |
Werkzeug |
not yet, difficult (see werkzeug sprint branch) |
flatland |
unknown |
Emeraldtree |
Ported to Python 3.3 with backward compatibility just testing is needed Python 2.7 >= 3.3 |
xstatic* |
unknown (but small, so no problem) |
Extras |
Python3 support |
sqlalchemy |
yes |
PIL |
no (yes for pillow >= 2.0.0!) |
python-ldap |

python-openid |
See also: https://python3wos.appspot.com/ and http://py3ksupport.appspot.com/ , moin_python3
The above list has some modules already been ported to python 3. But there are some important modules still left to be ported so that to prepare the prerequisite modules to be ported to python 3 that helps run moin2.

Worked on six Module for Porting and saw some basic changes |
|
20/04/13 |
Came to my Hometown and watched some videos of Programming Paradigm |
|
21/04/13 |
Worked on Comments on code reviews and Fixed them |
|
22/04/13 |
Cleaned up the error that came due to html_entities unable to import in Python 3.3, Saw Emerald Tree changeset python 2.7 >= 3.3 support |
|
23/04/13 |
Cleaned up the Moin2 test and made it compatible python 2.7 >= 3.3 see codereview |
|
24/04/13 |
Studied six module more to find the changes to be done over the comments after codereview , some new blog posts , Programming Paradigm |
|
25/04/13 |
Python 3.x porting redux helped me (http://lucumr.pocoo.org/2013/5/21/porting-to-python-3-redux/), so that how porting would be carried on at Moin2.0 |
|
26/04/13 |
Again run and tested the Moin2.0 over my system , found out the errors , studied python docs about porting , PEP 414 |

The best choice of Porting is using six module. This module best support python 2.7 and python 3.3. This module has pointed out the general methods and Objects that could behave same in py2 and py3
