I would suggest you start from the Mercurial repository instead. There
you'll find both the current stable branch (named "3.2") and the
current development branch (named "default"). It will also make it
easier for you to write and maintain patches.

Let me point you to the devguide, even though it doesn't talk
specifically about porting:
http://docs.python.org/devguide/

Regards

Antoine.
