Any chance of an update on this? I have found a potential sponsor, but moving forward is blocking on creating a Git repository for python-sklearn-pandas, which I currently can't do as I am not a member of the team.
Adopting factory-boy
I use python-factory-boy [1] and recently realised that it was removed from Debian [2]. The reasoning being that it is no longer a dependency of some OpenStack packages. I use this (currently through a package of the latest upstream release created with py2dsc), and would be interested in getting this back in to Debian. Currently I am not a member of the Python modules team (request pending), but I would be interested in maintaining it as part of the team. The source package can be found here [3], would it be best to try to continue with the history in that repository and bring it in to compliance with the team policy (use pristine-tar, use upstream tarballs to advance the upstream branch and use git-dpm), or to just start from scratch?

Request to join PAPT
I sent a request to join the PAPT via alioth [1] some weeks ago, but there doesn't appear to have been any response to that. I intend to adopt irker [2], and would like to see it maintained as part of the PAPT. My alioth username is drnlmza-guest . I am already a member of the DPMT [3]. Thanks [1] As is currently specified by http://python-apps.alioth.debian.org/policy.html [2] https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=756090 [3] Currently taking care of sqlobject & pydispatcher .

Of course it would be better to preserve the changes history. Basically you need to push the “debian/unstable” branch to the new repository as “master”, add missing “upstream” and “pristine-tar” branches, and call “git-dpm init”. Your upstream branch should be based on commit ac7e11a3389f15bb, so that git can handle the merge correctly. -- Dmitry Shachnev signature.asc Description: PGP signature
