Right, sorry, I didn't mean to imply the PSF isn't doing anything.  More that
we need a coordinated effort among all the companies and organizations that
use Python to help fund Python 3 library development (and not just in the
stdlib).  I think the PSF is best suited to coordinating and managing those
efforts, and through its tax-exempt status, collecting and distributing
donations specifically targeted to Python 3 work.
