Rob,
Python has already stated publicly that they will not accept patches
for 2.x branches that are only to add support for Haiku. For those
patches we are going to store them at HaikuPorts. If you haven't
already done so sign up for an account there and let's move this
discussion to the HaikuPorts dev mailing list.
Here's Guido van Rossum's statement on this, for which I agreed, that
it'd be ok to host the patches ourselves.
