I've stepped back from packaging for the most part but I think this is a great idea. When I was active I'd often find something to cleanup in python packaging for each release (pil => pillow; removing python-setuptools-devel). A python-sig group would definitely help with future cleanups like those.

Hi all,
there just was a request to test groups for pkgdb2 [1] and I thought it might be a good opportunity to maybe start sharing at least some core python packages among a few people.
For instance, I maintain ipython and the dependency chain when other maintainers chose to orphan something I need for it (or ipython introduces a new dependency). Such packages are good candidates to be maintained by a group of people, so updates can be managed better and several people have an eye on them.
What do others think about that? Who else would be interested in starting a common python-sig group in pkgdb2?
I am.
Greetings, Tom
