Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I request an adopter for the psyco package, as I no longer use the package and
cannot maintain it properly anymore. 

Due to lack of upstream support, maybe the package should be removed from
Debian altogether, as supporting python >> 2.5 will require significant effort.
Any feedback on this regard is welcome. 

The package description is:
 Psyco lets you run your existing Python software much faster, with no
 change in your source.
 .
 Think of Psyco as a kind of just-in-time (JIT) compiler, a little bit
 like Java's, that emit machine code on the fly instead of
 interpreting your Python program step by step. The result is that
 your unmodified Python programs run faster.
 .
 The plan for the next release is to include a fast low-level
 interpreter that can be used on non-Intel processors. It will finally
 make Psyco portable -- although of course not as fast as it could
 possibly be if it could emit real machine code.
