Comment 1 Juan Hernández 2014-06-23 11:18:14 UTC

This isn't currently feasible because the generateDS.py tool that we use to generate Python code from the XML schema doesn't support Python 3.

Comment 2 Juan Hernández 2015-05-21 16:46:32 UTC

Version 2.15a of generateDS.py was released on 02/18/2015. This makes including support for 3.x in 3.6 more feasible, but it isn't decided yet.

Comment 3 Juan Hernández 2015-05-22 13:47:22 UTC

This is the list of patches needed to add Python 3 support:
