I would still be tempted to go through a single release of deprecation. You can add a test that the names are gone if the version of Python is 3.3. When the tests start failing the code and the tests can be ripped out.

I was wondering how people remember... It would be nice is there were instead a central place to 'deposit' simple future patches that just consist of removals
