Just my two cents: Just one further informational note about using pypi in this way for statistics... In the porting work we've done within Fedora, I've noticed that a lot of packages are python3 ready or even officially support python3 but the language classifier on pypi does not reflect this. Here's just a few since I looked them up when working on the python porting wiki pages:
