Mea culpa. Second, my suggestion of moving it to the team was not meant in any way to say that I don't appreciate the amazing job you're doing. In fact, most packages in the Python Team repository are in reality maintained by one person; the primary benefits of being within the team are the mutual support and the ability to keep packages up-to-date or fixed if there are some problems and the maintainer can't get to them. (And sometimes the Debian Janitor fixes issues in packages automatically.) So it's entirely up to you; I can't personally take on the package (I'm already overloaded), but if you are happy to continue maintaining it, would you consider migrating it to the team repository? Best wishes, Julian

I would prefer to let go: Feel free to adopt pytest-asyncio and python-mock.

Move python-pytest-asyncio to debian-python-team shared repository?
Dear Jonas, I note that there is currently a serious bug against both python-pytest-asyncio and pytest-mock (https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1006736), and this bug is preventing the migration of several major packages to testing. I also note that the current Debian version of python-pytest-asyncio is 0.16.0 while the upstream version is already 0.18.3; this may (partly) address some of the issues. Currently python-pytest-asyncio is maintained just by you. I wonder whether you would be willing to move this to the Debian Python Team's shared repository on salsa and transfer the maintainership to the team, with you as primary uploader? (Most of the pytest-* packages are already team-maintained.) It's a very friendly team, and the mailing list is quite low volume. It would also mean that if there is an issue like this that you don't have the time to deal with, someone else from the team would be able to upload a new version of the package for you. The team policy is here: https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/tools/python-modules/blob/master/policy.rst and you can read more here: https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/PythonTeam/ Looking forward to hearing from you! Best wishes, Julian
