2) Looking for packages whose names don't start with 'python', but where the current version installs something into /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ and/or into /usr/bin/ with a shebang containing 'python2', the following packages appear to need rebuilding for python3:

Hi maintainers,

Please consider rebuilding your packages listed below for python3.

If you are no longer interested in being a maintainer for these (or all of your) Cygwin packages, please let us know, so we can update our records and stop bothering you about them!

Hi Jari,

In the absence of any response, I have assumed these are all orphaned.

If that's not what you wanted to happen, please let me know.

From a brief survey, only offlineimap and urlgrabber (which should probably be named python-urlgrabber, since it contains a python module) seem to be actively maintained enough to support python3.

So I will probably remove the others, and consider if it's possible and worthwhile to update those.

(I also noted that breezy appears to be the python3 replacement for bzr and getmail6 appears to be the python3 replacement for getmail.)
