There are a few major software projects that still do not support Python 3 (more and more are getting ported or replaced as time goes on), and many production systems are still using Python 2, but don't let /potential/ roadblocks keep you away from Python 3. Another thing to note is that, at least AFAICT, Jython, IronPython and PyPy are not going to support Python 3 any time soon, so if you need to use one of them, Python 2 is the way to go. -- CPython 3.2.2 | Windows NT 6.1.7601.17640 | Thunderbird 7.0
