Stable release of wxPython (Phoenix) for Python 3

I’ve done some looking around and came to the conclusion there is no official stable release of wxPython (Phoenix) for Python 3. Is this a correct statement?

Thanks

Yes this is correct.
In my understanding (because I am not a maintainer or developer on that
project) is that "Phoenix" is a working title for the current
unstable/testing version of wxPython. One of its feauteres is that it
will run with Python3.

But there are some ways to use wxPhoenix. What kind of system do you
work on? We can explain then how to build and install it.
You could try the wiki-pages, too. But they are inconsistent and
sometimes with confusing informations about the different possible build
processes.

Correct. There is still more that needs to be done before I feel comfortable calling it ready for release, but even so it is very usable in the current form. There are snapshot builds made available every day that there are changes committed to git, and although the reference docs still have some rough edges (due mostly to being mostly auto-generated) they are already better than anything we've ever had for Classic.

Thanks for the responses. I was looking for confirmation on the state of Phoenix because I have to make some recommendations on choice of GUI libraries (namely PyQt, PySide, or wxPython) for an upcoming project in which we want to use Python 3.x. Regarding the system we work on: it is Windows 7, 64-bit, with Visual Studio 2010 and 2013. That said, at this time, I’m more concerned about the library’s stability than building the thing.
