[chirp_devel] Is anyone running chirp on Python 3?

[Leam Hall]

Hey all,

I don't mean to sound like a know it all; I'm pretty sure I know very little. It looks like the project is still active, and folks are contributing. A local used it to load up my radio yesterday, I'm new-ish to the area and still had the old repeaters programmed in. Pretty sure my little Baofeng can't reach half way across the country, to the old repeaters. *sigh*

What's the challenge with moving to Python 3? What is holding things at Python 2?
