However, given how much backward incompatibe changes went into Python 3, I expect Python 2(.6) to stay around for quite a long time, so adding support for Python 3 to boost.python may not be a very pressing issue.
I use Boost.Python mainly for embedding scripting capabilities into my program. I care more about having a simple, easy to use and yet powerful scripting language than about compatibility, personally. Additionally, Python 3 is probably the occasion of revamping the iterator and range mapping in Boost.Python, since they've become much more important now.
