I suspect that packages will be removed from team maintenance as a result though and I think that's a bad idea.
If a package isn't in the team, any DD can ask for permission from the 
maintainer before an upload. So, what's the difference, with a package 
that is "is in the Python team", but nobody from the team can upload 
without prior approval from the current maintainer? It simply doesn't 
make sense.
So at the end, if packages get "removed from the team", it's a good 
thing: it clarifies the situation.
Andreas has been the biggest uploader of packages for many years (by the 
number of upload per year), and working a lot on Python stuff. It feels 
wrong we both fell in the "upload not granted: you should have read the 
team's policy better" mistake, and I do not wish others also receive 
this kind of demotivating message anymore.
