So we can never add new features to Python? That's depressing...
I'm actually really shocked that in all the discussion about getting packages into Sage, we fixed on voting procedures and other stuff, but totally missed by far the most important point -- getting somebody to solidly commit to maintaining the package on all platforms for a given amount of time.
That's not realistic. I am more in favour of making it easy to downgrade a package from standard to experimental if problems appear. If cliquer gives problems and nobody wants to fix it, then remove it from standard. Not a big deal.
