I think for inclusion in 2.6 it's to late. For 3.0, it's definitely
too late - the PEP acceptance deadline was a year ago (IIRC).

I'm worried whether it's stable, what user base it has, whether users
(other than the authors) are lobbying for inclusion. Statistically,
it seems to be not ready yet: it is not even a year old, and has not
reached version 1.0 yet.
