Gregory, I find your response a little troubling. Myself and Karthikeyan both 
do a lot of work on Mock, some might even say we're the maintainers of Mock in 
both cpython's core repo and the backport.

We both feel this belongs standalone on pypi, and would prefer not to see this 
merged.

"We've been using these internally at Google for years" is not a compelling 
argument and suggests you already have a viable solution which doesn't involve 
merging these into the core repo. Your phrasing could be interpreted as 
somewhat bullying - "it's right for Google, so I'm going to do it for all of 
Python in spite of comments from other core contributors, and I don't want to 
discuss this on a mailing list because that will take too long".

Please consider re-closing this issue and respecting the decisions of those of 
us who maintain mock long-term. If not, please suggest a way forward to mediate 
this disagreement, but please do not unilaterally merge anything without 
sorting this out first.
