I don't think that Python 3.0 is a bad thing. But that it's displayed so prominently on the Python web site, without any kind of warning that it's not going to work with 99% of the Python code out there, scares the hell out of me. People are going to download and install 3.0 by default, and nothing's going to work. They're going to complain, and many are going to simply walk away.
