 Dear Python team,

 I'm currently unable to maintain the kivy package properly, as I am
 busy writing my Ph.D. Could I kindly ask you to take over this package?

I'd be glad to take the role as an uploader for kivy and maintain it
under the DPMT's umbrella. In fact I had suggested this a while ago in
#737351, but you never replied, so I just assumed that you weren't
interested in team maintenance at all. Glad to see that I was
mistaken!

Regards,
Vincent

Hi Vincent,

sorry for not replying to your mail. It was sitting in my inbox for ages
and I was too busy to decide what to do with it until I eventually
forgot about it.

Anyways, thank you very much for taking care of the package!

Bastian

Re: About requests.packages.urllib3 in Debian

2014-11-10 Thread Daniele Tricoli
Hello Matthias,
sorry for the late reply, we had a problematic weekend due to weather in 
Sicily.

 I'd add a stub _file_ which just contains from urllib3 import *.

Well, urllib3 is composed of multiple subpackage, for a single module this 
would be the best soluction, but unfortunately it will not works well for a 
package with multiple submodules.
For example, urllib3.contrib.pyopenssl is not imported by from urllib3 import 
*.

IMHO using from-import would be weak: think about new names introduced during 
an update, missing one will break all code that use the missing name.

Cheers,

Re: About requests.packages.urllib3 in Debian

Hello Jakub,

On Wednesday 05 November 2014 12:15:29 Jakub Wilk wrote:
 Maybe it'd be overkill, but it's possible to teach Python that urllib3 
 and requests.packages.urllib3 are the same thing. Adding something like 
 this to the top of requests/__init__.py should do the trick:
[CUT patch]

Many thanks for the patch! On IRC Paul Tagliamonte suggested also something 
like this and, after looking at half of requests dependant packages (I will 
continue to look at them) I'm starting to think that this is the best solution 
because it's entirely transparent both for our package and for users who 
install packages on Debian using pip install --user.

#753578 was, at first, reported upstream:

   https://github.com/mk-fg/python-onedrive/issues/13

by someone who installed a something not packaged yet for Debian.

So, before my analysis on requests' dependant is completed, I'm going to open 
an RC bug on requests, fix it using Jakub's patch and than open an unblock 
bug.

If there are any objections please let me know.

Kind regards,
