QGIS 3 has entered feature freeze. It's, therefore, time to port your plugin. But be aware that the _API is not freezed yet_.
While you are porting/rewriting your plugin, think about using QGIS native widgets. For instance, if you need a combobox providing a list of layers, use a `QgsMapLayerComboBox` instead of a `QComboBox`. There is also `QgsFieldComboBox` if you need to pick a field in a vector layer. The full list of widgets is here http://python.qgis.org/api/gui/index.html It's less code to write for you, and users will have the same user experience across plugins and QGIS Desktop.
Also think about using the Processing framework. Your plugin can become its own Processing provider so your algorithms can be included in models and have the same UI as native algorithms. It's also less code to write, the UI is managed by QGIS. In QGIS 3, Processing has been refactored and is much more powerful than in QGIS 2.
