Ah, yes. It is indeed difficult or undesirable, or was so in the past: Some committers don't care (didn't care) at all about 3k. They would have to setup sandboxes, learn what the nature of changes is, and invest some regular time into forward-porting.
Is this really the case still? Who are these rogue committers? ;-)
I think holding a developer accountable for merging or blocking to py3k when they commit to trunk is a great idea. Who better to pass judgement on such an activity than the person closest to it?
Trent.
