> At least jython isn't an issue anymore (orphaned, and > new upstream snapshots available) Hi Matthias,
I am (recently) the primary maintainer of the (upstream) Jython project. I'm also a big fan of Debian. The next release of Jython will depend on either Python 2.2 or Python 2.3, if it gets packaged the way Jython 2.1 is currently packaged (with dependencies on the Python libs). Is this the right mailing list for discussing Jython on Debian? Or is debian-java the better place? I lurk in both... Anyhow, I hate to see Jython orphaned, perhaps down the road (after the next Jython release) I'll come back to find out what it takes to take over the package maintenance of Jython in Debian.
