Public bug reported:

[Availability]
The package is already universe for quite a while and build/works fine so far.
It builds amd64 only (but binary is arch-all)
This package builds only python3 related binaries.

[Rationale]
This is part of the MIR activity for all dependencies of mailman3
The "main" MIR of it is at bug 1775427:

Mailman (2) has only python2 support, but we strive for python3,
therefore Mailman3 which has python3 support should be promoted to main.

Given this deals with mail transfer it (even more) needs a security
review IMHO.

[Security]

No known CVEs found.
But dealign with SMTP this should IMHO get a deeper security evaluation.

[Quality assurance]

As part of the mailman3 stacks as of now (Disco) this installs fine and works 
fine.
On itself it is useful to (many) other dependencies and does not need a post 
install configuration on its own.

The package does not ask debconf questions.

Zero known bugs in Ubuntu and Debian for this component.
16 low-medium severity issues reported upstream, but nothing to action on yet.

The package gets somewhat regular updates by upstream and Debian
packages them as well as packaging some fixes as needed.

No exotic HW involved.

The package utilizes build time self tests.

d/watch is set up and ok.

No Lintian warning except newer Standards or GPG checks - nothing
severe.

The package does not rely on demoted or obsolete packages.
No new gt2k dependencies

[UI standards]

This is a low level library without (a lot) of user visible strings - no 
translations (needed).
No End-user applications that needs a standard conformant desktop file.

[Dependencies]

Some dependencies are not in main, but we drive MIR for all related packages
that are not in main at the same time.
Please check the list of bugs from the main Mailman3 MIR in bug 1775427 to get 
an overview.

[Standards compliance]
The package meets the FHS and Debian Policy standards.
The packaging itself is very straight forward and uses dh_* as much as possible 
- the d/rules fits on one screen.

[Maintenance]

The Server team will subscribe for the package for maintenance, but in
general it seems low on updates and currently is a sync from Debian.

[Background]
The package description explains the general purpose and context of the package 
well.
