Taking over SQLObject package?

2013-06-05 Thread Neil Muller 
The current python-sqlobject package is decidedly outdated (SQLObject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?

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.

Bye,
Carl Chenet
