Is there any easy way that the burden of trunk -> py3k merging could be moved to the original committers of the trunk patches?
I'm not sure I understand the question. If the committer of the original patch would do the merge himself, then certainly the burden would be on him, and that's an easy way.
Yes, that's all I meant: make it the committer's job to merge or block as appropriate. I just wasn't sure if there was some reason that this would be difficult or undesirable. I'm not suggesting that this be enforced (mechanically or otherwise); just that it might be worth considering instituting a policy to encourage individual committers to take responsibility for forward porting their commits.
