I would propose that the tech ctte not consider changing maintainership of python-defaults and python3-defaults. They are both maintained by a team of three DDs and seem to be working reasonably well. A number of changes for the better have been made in the last two years and these packages are essential to them. There is agreement on a single helper package for Python 3 (dh_python3). It is implemented in python3-defaults. There is general (not 100%, but general) consensus on gradual migration to a single helper for Python (dh_python2). Both python-support and python-central are now classified as deprecated with the agreement of their maintainers. dh_python2 is part of python-defaults. As I read the tech ctte discussion, the goal of having reasonable team maintenance for python-defaults and python3-defaults has been met and further changes are not appropriate. Scott K P.S. Please cc me on related follow-ups as I'm not subscribed to the bug.
