Re-request for sponsor: python-albatross

Hi, This is my third or fourth attempt to find a sponsor for the python-albatross package. So far, I've been contacted by one developer who was interested in sponsoring the package; he never replied to my reply, however, so I assume he has other things to do at the moment. Meanwhile, I'm continuin

python transition and python-tal

Hi, python-tal is maintained by the QA team so I thought I'd help and NMU it. I added a python2.3-tal package and it built correctly but the no-version package (python-tal) still depends upon python2.2-tal (I changed Build-depends-indep to python (>= 2.3), python (<< 2.4) ). Where did I miss the

python transition summary

I've put a summary of packages needing a rebuild in a world-writable file at http://people.debian.org/~joss/python-list.txt Please mark your uploads (maintainer or non-maintainer) in this file (gluck:~joss/public_html/python-list.txt). This is probably the time to start NMU's for library packages.
