(just for the avoidance of confusion, I'm an entirely different Jonathan)

You're very likely correct that the freeze impacted the upload. To 
upload newer versions of software (even for bug fixes) so late in the 
freeze, you have to write a proper justification to the release team and 
convince them that the benefit of the upload outweighs the risk, so in 
the last few weeks of the freeze, very few packages get updated.

Adding DPT to at least uploaders and having the package VCS in the 
python-team namespace would probably be a good idea, but that's up to 
Jonathan Wiltshire.
