Fedora already updated their Packaging documentation with info how to
deal with Python 3: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Python

I will try to summarize the main points:

* Python 2.6 is still default
* python runtime packages provide python(abi) symbols
  (in versions 2.6 and 3.1 at the moment), modules require
  the respective symbols (via rpm auto-dependency-generator)
* to build a package containing pythonX module you need to add
  pythonX-devel to BuildRequires (python2-devel/python3-devel or both
  when package provides module for both versions)
* new macros: %__python3, %python3_sitelib, %python3_sitearch

More precise info is available from the wiki.

If it is possible and desired I think we could try to align to Fedora again.
