* Package name : python-serpent Version : 1.8 Upstream Author : Irmen de Jong * URL : https://github.com/irmen/Serpent * License : MIT Programming Lang: Python Description : Serpent is a simple serialization python library based on ast.literal_eval Serpent provides ast.literal_eval() compatible object tree serialization. It serializes an object tree into bytes (utf-8 encoded string) that can be decoded and then passed as-is to ast.literal_eval() to rebuild it as the original object tree. As such it is safe to send serpent data to other machines over the network for instance (because only 'safe' literals are encoded). Why is this package relevant? This is a dependency of Pyro4 (see debian bug #745437) How do you pan to maintain it? It is a single source file (serpent.py) so I hope it will not be too much work. This would also be my first package and seems like a good choice for it. A mentor would be appreciated. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
