I agree as well. Please file a bug for its removal.

Request joining DPMT

2018-04-27 Thread kaliko
Hi,

I currently maintain the mpd-sima and python-musicpd packages.

I would like to maintain python-musicpd within the DPMT, which is why I
am hereby requesting to join the Debian Python Modules Team.

My Salsa login is kaliko-guest (same as my Alioth login).

I have read the DPMT Policy [0], and I accept it.

Thank you!

Cheers

I'm completely with you on this. As the one who initially packaged 
django-celery it's time to drop it. Both its successors, 
django-celery-results and django-celery-beat are packaged for Python3 
(Python2 support can always be added if someone wants to step in) in Debian.


The only thing left to do is to find a way to do the transition to those 
new packages. I'm thinking about mentioning this in NEWS.Debian for 
django-celery as any automatic transition does not seem feasible.

Michael
