If you have python packages ready for review, please post a link here and I
will review them.
I have a few python packages myself (and I use it extensively in my daily
astronomy work)

I have imported the last version of indi in rawhide. It is still not ready
(cmake has problems finding
libjpeg). I didn't notice there was a new version, but you can always open
a bug requesting the new version.
And comaintainers are always welcome.
