To answer your other post, one of the main people to touch tkinter in 
the last 3 years was Guilherme Polo, who worked on it during and after a 
Google Summer of Code project. He does not seen to be active currently.

There are currently 63 open issues on the tracker listing tkinter as a 
component. There are probably a few that could be closed. When I have 
learned more, I should be able to review any patched sitting around.

I was hoping you meant 3.1.something, not 3.0. Latest is 3.1.3.

3.2c2 will be out very soon, and 3.2 2 weeks after if no problems arise. 
As far as the doc and stdlib go, 3.2 is probably one of the most 
improved releases ever, as they got almost all the attention with no 
syntax changes allowed. When it is out, I will strongly recommend 
upgrading, absent a really good reason not to.

go back up a step and you can look at the log of changes.
For current python 3 in general:

http://svn.python.org/view/python/branches/py3k/

If you install TortoiseSVN, it is trivial to download the whole source 
tree. I believe you could also just download a subtree, like the tkinter 
and/or idlelib subtrees.

Sometime after 3.2 is out, we will move from svn to hg and above will 
change.
