[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1382?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13845348#comment-13845348 ]
Pedro Larroy commented on AVRO-1382:
------------------------------------
Hi
I'm also working on this as I need a python3 implementation of avro, currently working on fixing the unit tests and based on Christophe's branch:
https://github.com/larroy/avro/tree/AVRO-1382
I would like to remove the dependency on ant also.

> Hi,
> I'd need to use Avro from Python3, which would require essentially the following changes, which I am happy to contribute:
> - rewrite except statements according to new syntax
> - rewrite print statements according to new syntax
> - basestring becomes str
> - update some imports (StringIO becomes io.StringIO, httplib becomes http.client)
> This would apparently require branching the python code to maintain a version for python2 and a separate version for python3.
> Any thoughts on how to approach this?
> Thanks!
