I've made python packages defaulting to 2.1 (not in incoming) and have put them on ftp-master. deb http://ftp-master.debian.org/~doko/python ./ There is a second (currently empty) directory writable for Debian, which could serve as a place to collect NMUs for the new schema. deb http://ftp-master.debian.org/~doko/python-nmus ./ Comments are welcome.
