-1 for several reasons.

1) We've advertised -3 as part of TheOneTrueWay(tm). It's a core part of our transition story, so we should keep that as clean/consistent as possible. Deprecating the -3 switch seems like shooting ourselves in the foot. 2) There is some chance that there will be a 2.8, so it isn't helpful to burn down our bridges.

That's my feeling too. I think introducing a Py3kDeprecationWarning subclass is the right thing to do.

Regards

Antoine.
