Since there is no PEP to define the details* of such an addition, I 
assume that no particular core developer focused on this. There have 
been a lot of other additions to take people's attention. Also, I do not 
remember seeing anything from Mathew Barnett about his views on the 
proposal.

* Some details:

Replacement of or addition to re.

Relation to continued external project and 'ownership' of code.

Relation, if any, to the Unicode Regular Expression Technical Standard, 
and its levels of conformance.
http://unicode.org/reports/tr18/


The addition of ipaddress was not a drop-in process. There have been 
some docstrings changes and clarifications, some code changes and 
cleanups, and removal of stuff only needed for 2.x. I suspect that regex 
would get at least as much tuning once seriously looked at.
