I had a look at your package (because it is relevant for Debian Med) and
as I told you before if you just have packages in python-modules team it
is perfectly fine to stay in this Vcs if you prefer to do so.

I'm just using lintian -I -i which results in a
I: python-hl7: description-synopsis-might-not-be-phrased-properly
which can be fixed with a simple
$ svn diff

HL7 is a communication protocol and message format for health care data.
It is the de-facto standard for transmitting data between clinical
information systems and between clinical devices. The version 2.x series,
... I just noticed that I have no commit permissions in python-modules.
If some kind soul of this team would ask alioth admins to grant commit
permissions for DDs this could simplify things for inter-team
cooperation.

As I said: Whatever you prefer is fine.
Besides the nitpicking with the '.' above I wonder how the issue you
mentioned on the Debian Med list about licenses of XML files might be.
I neither have found such files in the code nor did I have seen
references in debian/copyright. If this is a non-issue I would go
on sponsering the package.
Kind regards
Andreas.
