Good move. You should be able to upgrade to 3.4.x safely, and 3.5 fairly safely.

Eventually, books about Python 3 will be the more easily found, and
you won't have this kind of confusion.

LibreOffice contains a Python 3 scripting engine.
Just for the fun, I take a look with Writer.
It simply fails on a valid string (as I expected).
However, LibreOffice does not crash (or may not crash).
I do no know how these "errors" are intercepted.
Unfortunately, that's not the case in Python GUI wrappers.
