that's the natural place to move from alioth for both teams.
PAPT's repos will also have to be converted from svn to git.
All we need is a volunteer who will prepare it and supervise the
process.

I don't understand this, though. Why you want to merge them?
Sure, packaging Python applications is very similar to packaging
libraries but the difference is very significant - unfortunately many
application maintainers don't know or care about it and pollute global
Python namespace with private libraries.

If not separated at team level, I definitely want to have them somehow
separated at repository level so that it's clear which package is which
type or to easily checkout libraries only.

The only advantage I can see is less hassle with join requests, but
I don't think it's a big problem (you have to join once).

I also have a feeling the more packages (team members?) we have, the
less people care about packages without their name in
Maintainer/Uploaders fields (even those who did team-wide changes in the
past are not so active now, including myself) and the team name should
be changed to collab-maint-2 or collab-maint-py.

looks like it takes only one repo at a time
