Fedora 14 schedule currently has feature freeze on 2010-07-27

Upstream release schedule currently has first alpha release on 2010-06-26, final release on 2010-12-11

So for Fedora 14 to have Python 3.2 we'd have to ship a pre-release version. Given that Python 3 isn't on the critical path, that's not unreasonable.

Lining up the schedules (as of 2010-05-28):
