I might be missing fine details of the English language here (what does "to be up for something" mean?), however, I believe ElementTree is an unlikely addition to the standard library. I also might be confusing people: AFAIK, ElementTree is Fredrik Lundh's work, not Fred Drake's, so it would be Fredrik who would need to contribute. My understanding is that Fredrik has indicated a dislike to contribute certain pieces of work, primarily out of fear to lose control. My experience with integrating his work without his explicit cooperation (specifically: sgmlop in PyXML) show that he won't object to somebody else doing such integration, but also won't try to cooperate afterwards.
