Thanks for sharing this! I've added a page on python.org's wiki for porting
tips for python3 and pyqt:
http://wiki.python.org/moin/PortingPythonToPy3k/PyQt4
Feel free to add or correct information there. I'm not certain if it still
does but in the past the python wiki allowed anonymous edits if you don't
want to make an account.
