Hi, Thanks for your reply. If you can maintain a backport requests & urllib3 yourself, that's perfect. This is exactly the type of reaction I was expecting from package maintainers, and it's a lot more positive than the reaction from Piotr. So let's do what you suggested: if I don't see your package in jessie-backports, I'll upload, and then you can take over as it pleases you. Cheers, Thomas Goirand (zigo)
