iiuc, getmail6 is a fork of getmail and from the getmail mailing list it appears that Charles (upstream of getmail) is also working on python3 version of getmail which will be ready sometime in the future. Keeping that in mind I will suggest that we keep getmail and getmail6 separate. I have mailed upstream of getmail6 and will need to ask him about few of my doubts regarding copyright, after I get the reply I will move it to ITP, unless someone else wants to package it before me. -- Regards Sudip
