well, I'd like to avoid doing that, I don't use python-soappy at all,
even does not know what it does. My two previous uploads were due to :
(1) transitionning the package to a new packaging standard,
(2) fixing a bug due to my previous upload (that you reported to me,
and you were right to do so).
But I'm not well placed to deal with a package I don't know well. I
forward your mail to the debian-python list, maybe someone will be
willing to check on that package, and ensure it's of release quality.
Also note that if the package is unusable, you should open a bug on the
BTS, with a high severity (if relevant). bugs of high severity *will*
be checked by developpers, presumably by some that know about that
package better than me.
Note that here, I'm convinced a new upstream has to be packaged asap,
but as said, not knowing the package, I don't know how stable the more
recent upstream releases are, and can't take such a decision.
Cheers,
