Taking over SQLObject package?
The current python-sqlobject package is decidedly outdated (SQLObject upstream is at 1.4, released this konth while debian is still at 0.12.4, released in 2010), and the last 2 uploads (in 2012 and 2013) have been NMUs. As a reasonably heavy user of SQLObject, find this state a considerable annoyance. Since I'm responsible for the last NMU, and have a decent relationship with upstream, would anyone object to me taking over the debian package? -- Neil Muller -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-python-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

The team policy [0] allows it, and I wouldn't object to you adding yourself to Uploaders. That said, have you attempted to contact the maintainer? Carl might be fairly MIA, but I've been e-mail contact with him recently about pip (which I really should upload), so he is around... I suggest starting to work on it in SVN immediately, and dropping Carl an e-mail to say you are doing so, and ask if he minds you co-maintaining.

Hi, The Debian package of SQLObject is team-maintained and I don't have any objection about someone taking over this package or co-maintaining it. Do not hesitate to remove me from the list of maintainers because I haven't been using this package for a long time.
