Comment (by cmbarton):

 No. Actually I was talking about 2.6. From what I've read, 3.0 is not
 backward compatible and would take serious rewriting. Also, there is no
 wxPython for 3.0.

 However, from talking with colleagues who program a lot in Python, 2.6 is
 supposedly  different in a sufficient number of respects to run a risk of
 breaking many programs in some way or another. There are migration
 utilities to make this easier. In our case we would not know how much
 would need to be changed until we run it and see what breaks. Maybe
 little, if we are lucky. But it's not a matter of just porting with no
 changes--as was the case from 2.4 to 2.5 for us.
