I already plan to port my debianmemberportfolio service to Python3 and Pyramid or Django later this year. I have experience with both but think that Pyramid is a bit more lightweight and I don't need a ORM and many other Django features. Paul already suggested to merge debianmemberportfolio with db.debian.org but I did not have time to evaluate that option yet.

Talk on Debian packaging of Python, Python modules and Python extensions at PyCon DE
Dear Debian Python people, at Chemnitzer Linux-Tage [1] I talked to some guys who are organizing the first PyCon DE [2] which will take place in Leipzig, Germany in October. They are quite interested to get a talk on Debian packaging of Python, Python modules and extensions. I would like to prepare and hold such a talk but would like your feedback/input on what you would like to tell the Python development community. The organizers are especially interested in best practice recommendations for Python developers to make the life of packagers easier. They also asked me how Python itself is packaged. I will have a look at the packaging but some kind of short summary of the most important things from your perspective would be great. I would like to give some best practice statements for Python module, Python extension and Python application packaging too. From my point of view this would include dh and dh_python{2,3}. I know there is cdbs and python-support does exist too, should I include them? I will suggest interested people to join DPMT, PAPT, debian-python@l.d.o and tell them about #debian-python too. Do you have more ideas about what should be said (or not said) there?

I would really like to have trac in DPMT (or more activity in the current trac team).
