I considered and rejected the idea at the time because a) I was more than busy supervising a GSOC project and b) to work on it seriously, I would want to ditch doctest (which was not meant for serious unit testing) and convert to using unittest for both 2.7 and 3.x. > And if you don't get the required attention, just fork it > yourself?
