maintainership usually isn't determined by dependencies. distlib is/was considered as the successor (or the base) for distutils/setuptools, maintainership seems to be in good hands. Given the history of pip maintenance, and shipping a pip version which actually touches files managed by dpkg, I think it's even better to keep distlib out of the hands of pip maintainers. > I would like to help > maintain the package, and would be willing to bring it under team > maintenance (or even team upload), and help maintain it. sure, please send patches instead. thanks, Matthias -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
