So we wait until we hear from Roger about hosting the source. Are you going to move the python wrappers in too? I think that would be best. It would also be good to ask John Harrison if you could be added to the pypi portmidi page, so you can make new releases on there. The nice thing about putting it on there, is you can host released files there too... which debian can point to. cu.
