Title:
  Python 3 support and dropping cheetah

Status in cloud-init:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Hi,
  in Fedora, we would like to use cloud-init with Python 3. While we are willing to help porting boto and cloud-init to support both Python 2.6/2.7 and 3.3, cheetah is the thing we won't like to port, as it is ooooold.

  So the question is: Would you accept patches that would introduce
  support for Python 3 and replace cheetah with a different templating
  system, such as jinja? If not we would need to come with our own
  solution (either repalce cloud-init or fork it) and I would not like
  to do that very much.

  Thanks for info
