Python3

[redst4r]

Ported the whole project to python 3 (3.5), extending on #57

• tests pass (except the five that fail even with the original code and python2).
• it's still compatible with python 2.7 (/examples/simple, examples/noisy examples/constrained work).
• the only thing i'm not so confident about is the string-encoding in spearmint/utils/compression.py
  and whether its still neccessary

So is this safe to use now?
When will it be merged?

[redst4r]

Didn't get any response from the developers yet.
Also, I didnt have time to use spearmint in some of my projects for some thorough testing

@PhABC : I presume the python setup.py install failed, not running spearmint after install.
Can you show us the actual error you get?
I just tested it with with Python 3.5.1 |Anaconda 4.0.0 (64-bit), and it installed properly

This version works well for me on two of my projects. The only thing, which might not be caused by this version, is that spearmint seems to stop on its own (freeze, not crash) without any error message in the output logs.

well would be nice to have the devs have a look at this...
