That sounds good to me. Just to elaborate on my earlier message, since it might have been too terse: I think it would be misleading to give in error at: print >>sys.stderr, "message" and say: Did you mean 'print("message")'? since they're not equivalent. If you can produce the equivalent text in the error message, then that's fine with me: Did you mean 'print("message", file=sys.stderr)'?
