Unfortunately, that's not how it works :-) If you check something into the
trunk, it will be merged into Py3k sooner or later. I may ask the original
submitter for assistance if it's incredibly hard to figure out the changes,
but so far, I only had to do that with the SSL changes. The decimal changes
are being merged as I write this (tests running now.) Is there anything in
particular that needs to be done for decimal in Py3k, besides renaming
__div__ to __truediv__?

If you re-eally need to check something into the trunk that re-eally must
not be merged into py3k, but you're afraid it's not going to be obvious to
the merger, please record the change as 'merged' using "svnmerge merge -M
-r<revision>". Please take care when picking the revision ;) You can also
just email me or someone else you see doing merges, as I doubt this will be
a common occurance.
