> While perfectly understanding the weak collaboration model reasoning, I've still always found DPT as uploader and not maintainer rather absurd TBH. The current go to tool (as I understand it) for python packaging, py2dsp, also creates an initial packaging with team in uploaders section and the person as maintainer; something that I find even more absurd. Not only would I welcome this suggested change, I also think it is better if py2dsp default to starting with DPT as maintainers.

Good point.  I've filed

  #1064952 pypi2deb: Please set DPT as Maintainer and the ID of the person calling py2dsp as uploader

with a patch that works for me in one test example.

The interesting thing is that a tool targeting at streamlining the work
of DPT is not team maintained itself.  It is maintained by those two
maintainers who obviously see some value in the weak cooperation option

udd=> SELECT * FROM (select maintainer, count(*) from sources where uploaders like '%team+python@tracker.debian.org%' and release = 'sid' group by maintainer order by maintainer) tmp WHERE count > 20;
             maintainer              | count 
-------------------------------------+-------
 Piotr Ożarowski <piotr@debian.org> |    23
 Sandro Tosi <morph@debian.org>      |    82
(2 rows)

which might influence their decision of the design of the tool.

Kind regards
    Andreas.
