Python 3, easy_install, pip and pypi
Question:
What is the current status of easy_install, pip and the repository (pypi.python.org) with regards to Python 3.x?
Are there versions of easy_install and/or pip that can install the right versions of packages from there? Else, are they expected soon?

PyPi itself supports Python 3. The setuptools package provides a version of easy_install that works with Python 3.
According to the pip page, pip support Python 3 since v 1.0.
There is ongoing effort to provide support for Python 3 in pip.
