What does this poll mean?

Off-hand, nothing: nominating a package will not mean that its authors now start porting it to Python 3.

However, we still hope that this still has some effect on the Python community:

Some packages listed here may already have been ported to Python 3. Please ask the package authors to use the Trove classifier "Programming Language :: Python :: 3" to indicate that the port has been done. If you are a package author who doesn't want to use that classifier for some reason, please contact pydotorg-www at python.org to get your package unlisted.

Disclaimer: the poll is mostly anonymous, except that we try to prevent malicious users from ballot-stuffing. We will not publish identity information that we have collected. If we suspect massive ballot stuffing, we might adjust the accounts.
