There was a small amount of renaming "unittest" to "unittest2" required, but other than that, the patch applied pretty cleanly, and seems to pass the unit tests and avoid the ever-increasing memory problem in my private test suite. Do you think it's sufficient to port just this feature? Or if not, what am I missing that requires resyncing more of unittest2 with the changes from Python 3? Is Google Code[2] still the right place for unittest2 issues? I found that via PyPI[3]. It looks like there have been a lot of commits in the unittest2 repository since the last PyPI release (2010-07-12 -- 0.5.1). Would you plan to do another PyPI release of unittest2 with this feature? Or would you recommend using unittest2 from the repository to get it? Or am I missing a more recent packaged release somewhere else?
