Just a quick note about Python 3 support in the kdevelop python plugin: I will switch over to supporting Python 3 language features as soon as there’s a release of the Django web framework using Python 3 (as this plugin was originally intended for developing Django applications, this seems like a reasonable point in time to me).

Now I can finally release a first preview of my work to the public: In this post I’ll tell you about what the plugin is capable of and how to install it. First of all, this is the list of supported features: Semantic syntax […]
