Hi all

At long last, a progress update. My python-six branch passes the test
suite in both python 2 & python 3 (well almost, this excludes the
tutorial doc tests, and the tests that use python-fastimport or the c
extensions are skipped.)

I still have a lot to do, but it is a big milestone.

In the mean time, I'm going to submit a pull request for some of the
simpler changes.

Regards,

Gary
