I don't know why python-debiancontributors should need to get quicker
into the backports archive. Considering the users of the package being
almost DSA only, couldn't you install the package on Debian machines
via a local APT repository instead?
Another idea to circumvent python-debiancontributors getting a special
treatment is to get it faster into testing. Apparently there is a way
to get that by providing some autopkgtests[1], as has been announced
by the release team some months ago[2].

Micha
