I assume that means me (Russel) :-)

Yes. Bill did a whole lot of work, and so now there is only the
mainline repository with it's default branch. Any and all changes must
ensure that all the tests pass when run on Python 2.7.x (I am guessing
there is a minimum for x here as 2.7 changes so much!), and should
improve things when run on Python 3.4+.

All pull requests should be against mainline default, and one of the
core team will either commit it or call for a discussion.

I won't be able to look at anything until after Devoxx UK 2016, so next
week at the earliest.
