Or, from the other side, what's preventing Barry to collaborate with Matthias *right now*, without waiting? I can't find signs of any Barry's contributions in the Debian changelogs for Python interpreters or -defaults packages (but there was some minor fixups in Ubuntu in the past). Since we are at it, there are recurring problems reappearing: - python2.6 removal willingness was only reported to debian-release [1] (opinionatedly late in the development process) without any collaboration/coordination (request) with python modules/apps team. - python2.7 (a security-fix release, which is outdated since 20 days, like python3.2, while Ubuntu had them uploaded even before the official availability announce[2]) is keeping FTBFS in mips while on GNU/kFreeBSD was fixed by a NMU helping those archs catching up, as confirmed by release team on irc.
