Usertags: transition

As I wrote some time ago, the APT team would like to disable
the old python-apt API for Python 2.X now.

Preparation for this transition started more than a year ago,
and most packages are now fixed. The transition can be seen in
[1].

Some time ago, we uploaded 0.7.100+newapi with old API disabled
to experimental in order to allow further testing. We now uploaded
0.8.0~exp1 which does this again.

After the Python transition(s) and once we finished our
changes for the 0.8 release (1,2,3 weeks), we'd like to
upload a 0.8 release to unstable.

Packages remaining to be fixed/affected by this transition:
  - python-debian (needs update)
  - debdelta (leaf package)
  - dogtail (leaf package, removefromtesting)
  - computer-janitor (leaf package, removefromtesting)
  - software-properties (needs update)

I'd be ready to NMU python-debian. I provided a patch
for debdelta over a year ago, but it was not included
in any upload since then. Dogtail seems to be un-
maintained and could be removed from testing. Computer
Janitor is maintained by me, and needs a larger update,
but could be removed from testing in the meantime. The
worst problem is software-properties which needs a
large update.

and now, migrated to testing.
