 Python 2 and 2to3
 =================
-Included with Python since 2.6, 2to3_ tool (and :mod:`lib2to3` module) helps
-with porting Python 2 to Python 3 by performing various source translations.
-This is a perfect solution for projects which wish to branch their Python 3
-code from their Python 2 codebase and maintain them as independent codebases.
-You can even begin preparing to use this approach today by writing

-with 2to3; all steps outlined below will work with Python 2 code up to the
-point when the actual use of 2to3 occurs.

 Use of 2to3 as an on-demand translation step at install time is also possible,
 preventing the need to maintain a separate Python 3 codebase, but this approach
