yes, I can. :/
I actually did something like this to get 2.6 in Lenny.

I'm not "expecting" that much, and I don't really feel qualified to do
much in this direction, with all the usual other problems applying, too,
but if someone says "I lead, you follow", that might be a good-enough
plan. Something like getting some supervision - eg. I don't feel
anywhere near qualified to find, much less fix, a security problem
in Python myself.
I only voiced my opinion and stated a reasoning that hasn't been
mentioned. It's of course up to the do-ers to do anything with it, or to
ignore it.
Kind regards,
