There's https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Python3 but it's not (always) up
to date.

The interest never decreased, but it's always have been a long term
effort and it's not going to be finished tomorrow.

There's a team of people working among OpenStack projects to add support
of Python 3 in various places already, and some clients are already
working.

One of the main blocker has been oslo-incubator which was not ported to
Python. But if my plan comes together, we'll be able to partially gate
on py33 this week.

Last, but not least, trollius has been created by Victor Stinner, who
actually did that work with porting OpenStack in mind and as the first
objective.
