(Still waiting for > the IDs). FWIW, these were both previously in Debian. Yeah, we could carry them in the team. I'm not going to review those packages right now. But request sponsorship for them in the usual channels (IRC / the list) and hopefully someone can help you. > However, I think these packages would better be hosted in the Python team. > Thus, I would like to join the Debian Python Team since I read > https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/tools/python-modules/blob/master/policy.rst > and accepted it. I'm always a little bit hesitant to add brand new Debian contributors to the team. In the past, I've sometimes done probationary membership or just access to a single repo. But the risk is fairly minimal. The main worry is that we get stuck with a package that nobody is maintaining. Added you. Welcome to the team!
