<h2 id=code>Where To Look For Python 3-Compatible Code</h2>
<p>As Python 3 is relatively new, there is a dearth of compatible libraries. Here are some of the places to look for code that works with Python 3.
<ul>
<li><a href='http://pypi.python.org/pypi?:action=browse&c=533&show=all'>Python Package Index: list of Python 3 packages</a>
<li><a href='http://code.activestate.com/recipes/langs/python/tags/meta:min_python_3/'>Python Cookbook: list of Python 3 recipes</a>
<li><a href='http://code.google.com/hosting/search?q=label:python3'>Google Project Hosting: list of projects tagged “python3”</a>
<li><a href='http://sourceforge.net/search/?words=%22python+3%22'>SourceForge: list of projects matching “Python 3”</a>
<li><a href='http://github.com/search?type=Repositories&language=python&q=python3'>GitHub: list of projects matching “python3”</a> (also, <a href='http://github.com/search?type=Repositories&language=python&q=python+3'>list of projects matching “python 3”</a>)
<li><a href='http://bitbucket.org/repo/all/?name=python3'>BitBucket: list of projects matching “python3”</a> (and <a href='http://bitbucket.org/repo/all/?name=python+3'>those matching “python 3”</a>)
