yes please

we do not add libfoo package to DPMT (written in C/Perl/whatever) if its
Python wrapper "foo" module requires it. We do not maintain gcc even
though it's required by a lot of our packages. I'm sorry, but IMO one of
the main reason of having teams in Debian is to group people interested
in similar topics. I don't want to touch Perl or JavaScript and I'm
grateful to people who maintain libraries for these languages for me.
Someone long time ago decided to create a team to maintain Python
modules, this team already has so many packages that almost nobody
reads -team mailing list so I don't want to make it even worse (and
scare these few people who still read it) and add Python applications or
$UGLYLANG libraries there. If someone wants to package python-bar that
requires bar-perl, IMO the best way (especially when you don't have that
great Perl knowledge) is to join Perl team to help you maintain bar-perl
and encourage Perl Team guys to maintain python-baz within our team if
their baz-perl needs python-baz

I guess I missed your request email on this mailing list, sorry. Let me
know if you're still interested

it is
