For reasons of my own, I need to create a Celery 4.0.2 Debian package. This means also updating the Kombu and AMQP packages. As I'm doing this work anyway, my preference would be to share it with the World through DPMT.
However, I notice that python-amqp has a lot of other reverse dependancies, including OpenStack, and that we're currently in a release freeze. I've also seen there's been some discussion about using the DEP14 branch/tag convention and switching to gbp pq.
Would people be happy for me to start updating Celery and its dependancies, uploading the results to experimental, or should I keep my work to myself for the time being?
As an uploader for celery, kombu, and python-amqp, I see no problem myself. I can't speak for other packages, and definitely I can't speak for packages not under DPMT.
For now, I would suggest creating a debian/experimental branch, switching to gbp pq (as using non-standard branch names is easier with gbp pq), and then continuing. I have done this already for the python-mkdocs package.
If you need any help, let me know.
