Hi Craig,
Indeed, I'd like to avoid changing my workflow for py3. I certainly plaid
culprit for that, and I apologize for your frustration.
I use cctrial <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/cctrial> to run the tests are
impacted by my tests, and the upload so that the CI can handle the full
matrix.

py3 is not the only regression possibility. It is the same for the 24 code
configurations that we support. For example I don't run manually the tests
against mysql innodb.
Sometimes mysql brokes (e.g https://github.com/buildbot/buildbot/pull/2715),
but thanks to the CI we know about it before merge.

I have already spent a big amount of time on py3 this week, much more than
I expected, and now I am late on the release I planned to do this week.
I would have liked there were some acknowledgement from you about that.

Now that we have CI on py3 I expect that there are no more regressions.
Again I am not against you I try to figure out the correct amount of
attention I need to put on this to stay productive.

Pierre
