I think it helps Luca and many others (including myself) if there is a reference of the difference between 2.7 and Python 3.3+.

Not specifically for 2.7 and 3.3, no. This is a fairly complete list:

There are PEPs and books, but is there any such long list of references?

If not, should we start investing in one? I know the basic one such as xrange and range, items vs iteritems, izip vs zip that sort of uniform syntax/library inclusion difference. If there is such reference available?

I'm honestly despairing that people still don't know that there is a free book on the topic. I have no idea how to increase the knowledge on this point.
