Be quiet won't solve it either, sadly. That's proved by the long
silent period that provides not advance on the python
maintainership-side. At least i'm proposing to form a group (and be
part of that) to take over maintainership.

That's my point: I'm not saying it's something that should not be
done, but since the freeze is coming, and py2.6 is targetted for
squeeze, maybe work on this is more Debian-oriented that working on
gcc-4.5 that won't be the default gcc for squeeze.

I don't argue he's not able to reply, but that he's not inclined to. I

Probably you don't know (because I, in the first place, didn't make
them always public/well-spread) how many times I've asked to
collaboratively maintains all the python modules he maintain, and they
went all with no reply. Also the packages that are/were already in the
DPMT are uploaded without committing the changes to SVN.
