I'm starting to think that if a library won't switch to Python 3 then it's time for the library to die and people move on to a new library that offers similar functionality and does work on Python 3.
For example, PIL doesn't support Python 3, but there's a GraphicsMagick wrapper [1] which does. Graphics Magick is more functional anyway.
You may have time invested in PIL and other Python 2 libraries, but newbies don't, and there's no reason to start them off on a dying version of the language. It's contributing to the chicken and egg problem that's holding Python back.
