[python-committers] Why r69846 is not merged to"release26-maint"?

I'm one of those people who have backported fixes to 3.0, but I do not want
a 3.0.2 to go out now thet 3.1 has been released.  The latest version should
not get upstaged.  Essentially, 3.1 is what 3.0.x should have been.  The 3.0.x series 
is defective and needs to die-off and be forgotten.

So, not only would 3.0.2 be a waste of Barry's time, it would be a step backwards.
A while ago, Barry said that 3.0.2 would not happen, so at that point several of
us stopped backporting fixes.  So, 3.0.2 still has known bugs and I think it would 
be a mistake to release it.
