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.
Are you withdrawing your offer to maintain regex in the stdlib?
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.
But changes to the stdlib (bug fixes or functional changes) are very likely to run at a slower pace to what third-party packages can afford. If you continue to develop regex outside of the stdlib, that could cause complications.
