[Inkscape-devel] Python extensions

Hello, As you may know, Python 3 release introduced a break of compatibility with Python 2.7. Currently, Inkscape Python extensions (and the inkex.py file) is only compatible with Python 2. It is possible to make the code compatible with both versions, but some external modules (such as six or python-future) are necessary.

I think it is necessary to switch to a Python 3 compatible codebase, to attract new extensions developers, and for the ease of maintenance.

What is your opinion on this matter ?
