Let's admit it. Once Django is Py3K-ready, all other projects will follow suit.

Is Django really that big a deal in the python world? I know it is a big deal in the python web world, but the web seems a pretty small part of the python world as a whole. If I where to ask all the python developers I knew to prioritize the projects they want ported to py3, I'd imagine the results being numpy/scipy/matplotlib first followed wxpython or pyqt second followed by PIL and a whole bunch a smaller libraries, with Django getting a "sure I guess" down at the bottom of the list.

I don't do webdev, so I fully agree with that :) FWIW, NumPy supports python 3 (for quite a few months now, IIRC), and I imagine that SciPy does too.
