past/types/oldstr.py:33: DeprecationWarning: invalid escape sequence \d #479
Description
That warnings appears with python3.6:
past/types/oldstr.py:33: DeprecationWarning: invalid escape sequence \d
Apparently the broken code is inside docstring example but is enough to pollute any test executions on a library using python-future.
An easy solution is to replace the example with another escape which is still valid, like a \n instead of \\d. Also a release would be needed.

Note, this now produces a SyntaxWarning with Python 3.8:

Can you submit a bugfix please? I'll include it in a release in the next few days.

There already is one, #480, which referenced as closing this issue.

Is this project effectively dead? PR is present and is a one char fix. What prevents merging and making a release?
