I'm in the process of converting several Python scripts so that they work under both Python 2.6 and 3.1. For the most part, 2to3 does an amazing job. Great tool. One little feature request: could we make it add "from __future__ import print_statement" to the top of files? That one change is enough to make >95% of my converted scripts work fine under 2.6 and 3.1 instead of just 3.1.
