hi Gabriel,

since you set the maintainer to the Python team and there was a
sponsorship request on the team's IRC channel, it looks like you want
this to be a team package. If so, you will need to move the package's
git repository from its current location in the Debian group to the
Python team repo at [0]. You won't have sufficient access rights to
execute this move yourself (and neither do I), so you'll have to open
a support ticket for this with the salsa overlords at [1].

Once that move is complete, enable the CI on salsa and push your
changes to team repo; as a team member, you will have write access to
the repository, eliminating the need for merge requests. Once things
look good, send your sponsorship request to the team's main discussion
list or add it to the topic on #debian-python IRC channel (OFTC
network).

A quick glance at your work as uploaded to mentors didn't show any
major issues, just some minor stuff:
* copyright: LICENSE file gives 'Kenneth Reitz & individual
  contributors' as the upstream copyright holders.

* d/tests: in its current form the custom autopkgtest only does a
  simple module import for the default python version only, basically
  duplicating in a bad way what "Testsuite: autopkgtest-pkg-python"
  already provides. Please remove the current d/tests directory.

* control: the package could gain a non-trivial autopkgtest simply by
  setting Testsuite to 'autopkgtest-pkg-pybuild' instead of -python,
  which would run the full upstream testsuite in an autopkgtest
  context.

* control: VCS fields need to point to the team repo.
