Barry usually takes ownership of changes to the email package.
Do you have patches ready for him to review?

Not yet for 1974, but given that I submitted a patch for this issue:

http://bugs.python.org/issue4308

...some months ago, and nothing has happened with it, I want to get a bit more pro-active, hence the question in the subject line ;-)

Being proactive with that package probably means submitting
patches and waiting.  When there are active module maintainers,
other contributors (including committers) generally refrain from committing semantic changes and defer to the package owner (effbot for ElementTree, Barry for email, Ippolito for json, Vinay for logging, Skip and Barry for csv, me for itertools and
collections,  Kurt for IDLE, etc).

The process can be maddenly slow (waiting for an owner to
have the time and inclination) but it has its advantages over
the long-term.
