Congratulations!

This is work you're doing in collaboration with the ‘pysrs’ upstream
developers, right? You are aiming to get users to test this, and get it
into a release, before doing any of this in Debian. Is that correct?

I think that porting a work to Python 3 is not appropriate for a Debian
patch. That should be done only in a maintained upstream work; maybe a
fork, but certainly not just a patch on the released upstream work for
Python 2 only.
