I've setup my Django project to store static and user-uploaded files into Amazon S3. In order to accomplish that, I've followed the example found herer https://ashokfernandez.wordpress.com/2014/03/11/deploying-a-django-app-to-amazon-aws-with-nginx-gunicorn-git/:
prod.py
INSTALLED_APPS += ('storages',)
AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME = "project"
STATICFILES_STORAGE = 'storages.backends.s3boto.S3BotoStorage'
S3_URL = 'http://%s.s3.amazonaws.com/' % AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME
STATIC_URL = S3_URL
but when I try to run manage.py collectstatic -v 0 --noinput I get this error:
Traceback (most recent call last):

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

It seems the lib django-storages==1.1.8 doesn't support Python3 yet, and that's why I'm getting that error.
My question is: How can I solve this problem? Is there any similar lib to replace django-storages?
I'm using django 1.7.1 and Python3.
