Guido is busy preparing it for release now, but remember that this will 
be an alpha version, I don't know how long it will take to stabilize...
Still if you're planning on doing shared memory stuff it would make more 
sense to help get 3.1 to a stable state than to write your own.
If you're interested in helping develop, join the 
python-dev at httpd.apache.org mailing list.
