Short answer yes.

Longer answer, if it's based on F11, it should have at least python-2.6.
 If it has 2.6, then something resembling python3 code will be allowed.
  I qualify that since there are incompatibilities between what 2.6 with
python3 syntax and python3.0 do.  Whether the incompatibilities are
something we can deal with or not is something we need experience with
to find out.
