Source: libcloud Severity: wishlist Hi,
If possible, please consider moving away from the use of Epydoc in your package. Epydoc is basically unmaintained upstream. Also, it is only supported for Python 2, so it will reach its end of life along with Python 2 sometime in 2020. I will continue to maintain the Epydoc packages in Debian as long as I can, acting as de facto upstream. However, once Python 2 is unsupported in Debian, I'm not sure that we'll have too many options to keep it alive. Migrating it to Python 3 is a fairly large job that I don't have the time or the expertise to take on right now. For my own Python code, I have recently converted to Sphinx using the Napolean plugin. At [1], I can offer you (or your upstream) a hack-ish script to convert common Epydoc markup to Google-style docstrings. It's not perfect, but it would get you much of the way toward working code. Thanks, Ken (maintainer for python-epydoc) [1] https://bitbucket.org/cedarsolutions/cedar-backup3/src/73037a2/util/sphinx-convert
