Summary

As in, port the entire project to python 3. The "six" package is a thing, may need to look into that.

From @dbond2 -

• __future__ imports for print()
• __future__ imports for absolute_import
• __future__ imports for unicode_literals
• __future__ imports for division (not widely applicable, like the other ones)

--

• unicode() --> str()
• drop __unicode__() from models for only __str__()

--

• I do not think that bytestring issues are a problem, usually either by file processing or HttpRequest/HttpResponse objects, or by their specific use as a type
• exceptions must use as(fairly sure already being done)
• defining iterator, boolean evaluation, and division methods on objects would need to be changed, but I don't think they're applicable

--

• install python3-dev
• requirements and virtualenvironments will need to change
• look at and upgrade the third-party packages alongside this issue
• README will need to change accordingly
