(I've been having trouble with my email recently, so I missed this
thread amongst others.)

I personally am no longer that bothered about whether the regex module
makes it into stdlib, but I am still be maintaining it on PyPI. If
someone else wants to integrate it I would, of course, be willing to
help out.

As long as they basically have the same source code, any bugs or other
problems in the integrated module would be shared by the separate
module, and I would want to fix them, so any fix in the separate module
could be replicated easily in the integrated module.

It already works with Python 3.3 alpha, including PEP 393, BTW.
