This might be useful:

  http://python3porting.com/2to3.html

although it's not clear from your question whether you're competent
in Python and just a little unclear on 2to3 or coming new to the
whole thing and hoping that 2to3 will give you a pain-free conversion.

If it's the latter then I'm afraid your ride may be rockier than
you hoped. :(

Also, I note that you're UK-based (albeit at the other end of it from
where I am). Depending on where this thread goes you might get some
local help by posting to the python-uk mailing list:

  http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-uk

It's a quiet list, mostly for local events and jobs, but
you might find someone in your neighbourhood (or at least in your own
country) who could give you some help.
