That's very convinient and normal on Debian lists. Please also be aware
that on Debian lists it policy to not CC people. While nobody will
blame you here on Debian Science list about not following this (and I do
so intentionally since I do not know whether you are subscribed) I just
tell you so since you are a newcomer and maybe you will run into a
situation on some other mailing list where someone might give you some
not so friendly advise about this. ;-)

Debian-python is also a very well fitting list.

No problem. I was just mentioning alteratives since not everybody reads
README.source under every circumstance. That's why I also drop a note
into d/changelog if its very important knowledge for other team members.
