This page describes efforts to port pylint to Python 3.x
Status of the port
We're really just getting started.
Goals and high level overview of tasks
The idea is to eliminate Python 2.4 compatibility because that will simplify some of the code, and to expand compatibility to 3.0 and 3.1.
- This will require converting 3 Python 2-compatible packages to a common subset of Python 2 and Python 3. We may or may not be able to do this using 2to3; 2to3 may or
- may not prove too exuberant about moving to a nice, python 3-only syntax in some areas.
- logilab-common
- This one is probably the place to start, because it appears to contain the test harness we need, and the owners of the code believe it will
- be the easiest part
