Great. I hope my existing packaging work (as uploaded to 
mentors.debian.net) is useful to you both.

I would be happy to work with you both, and would be very pleased if 
you (Gustavo) could sponsor uploads.

I'm interested in the prospect of working with the python-modules and 
python-applications teams, but not at the expense of using Subversion, 
which at the moment seems to be a prerequisite of both those teams.

I work with Subversion on some existing projects, and it's too 
cumbersome compared to most modern VCSes. I would much prefer not to 
start any new work using Subversion as the VCS.

So, my counter-proposal: I will set up a Bazaar repository in the 
Alioth collab-maint project, and we can use that as the central VCS 
repository for both an upstream mirror and the Debian packaging work.

You're welcome. I'm very much aware that Gracie has a number of 
shortcomings, so having more active users will be good to motivate 
work on improving it :-)
