But, which plugin threads are are first in the thread list do get my attention.
And the plugins I haven't released above are examples of this. Looking at them, I updated them within a few days of the original Python 3 announcement. I didn't release them then as there was no hurry, and I wanted to see if other changes were needed. Most of the plugins that I have released Python 3 versions of are ones that have needed other changes, or someone explicitly asked about.

I wanted to give people a heads up as the new release of Calibre is due soon. It never occurred to me to do it the way you suggested but both ways have their advantages and disadvantages.
In any case it got a reaction and hopefully we will now not see so many people posting complaints that their favourite plugin does not work.
