It's your choice. If people want to maintain pybsddb3 for older Python
releases, it would be necessary to synchronize the two code bases
regularly. That would be the task of whoever is interested in
providing older Python releases with newer code. From the viewpoint
of the Python distribution, this support is not interesting.
