Python3 Compatibility

REPORT A BUG/PROBLEM

Hi, I want to notify you of a bug/problem that is happening on the Planet.

I am using:
O.S: N/A
Browser: N/A
Platform: N/A

Problem

Python 2 is going away. This code is not compatible with Python3.

Details

This is more of a request for information than a bug. What is the path forward with this code as Python2 goes away? Is there any interest in moving this to 2.7 with compatibility for 3.4+?

Is it worthwhile to migrate this fork of planet over to python3 or is a new platform in the wings to replace this one?

Upon glancing at different parts of this code:
feedparser.py:
I know that feedparser has been maintained and has 10+ years of development over the one included in this repo. It also has python3 support

compat_logging:
Is there any reason the built-in logging won't work?

htmltmpl:
some work has been done in a github fork of the sourceforge repo

planet:
Main project looks dead. Has been rewritten in a number of different languages. The version included seems to have very little code commited to it. There is a later version in the main projects repo that includes TESTS. Perhaps rebase on that?

I would be happy to take some of this on if there is some willingness to accept pull requests. Any thoughts?

Thanks.

Start by reviewing the compatibility concerns identified in feedparser.py, compat_logging, htmltmpl, and the planet code, then compare them with the later main-project version that includes tests. The issue does not define a specific migration scope or acceptance criteria, so confirm project direction and a supported Python version before identifying what completion would mean.
