[ BTW if you add two X-Debbugs-Cc, the latter seem to override the
  former, so this never reached d-d AFAICT. You can use instead a
  comma-separated list on the same header. ]

This seems to be a python module only package, but its source package
name is not currently namespaced. Given that it has not yet passed NEW,
please namespace it with python- to avoid taking on the global namespace,
so that we do not "prevent" packaging something that for example installs
a command with the same name (or having to end up using a non-obvious one
for that, or requiring a future rename), so that it's easier to see what
it is about when doing archive-wide analysis from Sources, or dd-lists,
or even reading changelogs via stuff like apt-listchanges, like the rest
of the language specific teams are doing. :)

Thanks,
Guillem
