As far as I know there isn't yet a currently active effort to support Qt5.
http://qt-project.org/wiki/PySide_Roadmap focuses on near-term work and
mentions Qt5 only as something in the future. This is because the
current developers are mostly focused on using PySide with Qt4 for now.
I expect this will start to change over time but perhaps not that
quickly. Working on Qt5 and/or Python3 support would be a great way for
new developers to get on board with contributing to PySide. We do need
more developers.
Here's a list of issues for Python 3 support:
