Hey,

hyperkitty, which is part of mailman3 suite depends on django-browserid
which depends on PyBrowserID, so for starts I wanted to package these two.

I realized yesterday's evening after submitting my ITP that Persona was
about to shutdown (in Nov.). Sadly, this was not clearly mentioned neither
on https://login.persona.org/ nor on PyBrowserID Github's page.

That pushes me backwards. I'll suggest upstream to drop browserid
dependency, as it's quite "easy" to do.

I close the bug since it seems not relevant to package this library anymore.

Thanks for your email, and sorry for the noise.

Are you sure we need this in the archive? Packaging dead horse doesn't seem 
like a good idea...

Wikipedia says:

It was launched in July 2011, but after failing to achieve traction, Mozilla 
announced in January 2016 plans to decommission the service by the end of the 
year.[3]

Hi Pierre-Elliott,

To get more luck, you should really use the proper channels for sponsorship:
either the debian-python mailing-list specific to python packages, or the
general sponsorship-requests process on the debian-mentors mailing-list (more
info is available on http://mentors.debian.net/sponsors).

Cheers (and good luck with your packages!),
