Hi Sandro,
Thanks for checking the package. I would be happy to work on the
package until it is of release quality, but committing to long term
maintenance is something I'm a bit hesitant to do, due to lack of time
and experience in Python and SVN-based packaging.
Pivy seems to be a stable package in a sense that it hasn't had a
release in a while. This on one hand means that there is probably not
going to be much work in packaging new upstream versions. On the other
hand this might mean that upstream is dead and someone in Debian has
to deal with the bitrot and possible security issues. Still I would
really appreciate if someone more involved with Python modules than me
could inject this package to the SVN and take care of the (extremely
simple) packaging if it needs to be changed due to new policies etc.
