+1 on the separate mailing list (and PEP numbers). If Barry (or another mailing list admin) is feeling energetic, some branch-specific topics on python-checkins would be nice, too. While I'm interested in tracking trunk checkins, I'm not so concerned about the exact details of what's happening on the p3yk branch.
