Here's the problem:

"""
Sometimes 2to3 will find a place in your source code that needs to be 
changed, but 2to3 cannot fix automatically. In this case, 2to3 will 
print a warning beneath the diff for a file. You should address the 
warning in order to have compliant 3.x code.
"""

So it means we can't dual maintain code easily between two 
branches/versions.

Something to try out now, for sure, though, I'd think ... so we can 
anticipate what may happen.   Though trying this out without having 
Python 3.X built versions of all the libraries any given app might need 
to complete it's tests yet is going to be slightly fun.
