A lot of the initial work was done a while ago; search the commit messages
(or dev list archives) for 2to3 for some info.  Probably the best thing is
to start a branch for it; from what I've heard I don't think it's possible
to continue to support 2.4 (our current baseline) and 3 at the same time,
but there's a lot I at least don't know (Unicode, how far back can we still
support -- old python versions are still important, and probably other
things).
