I'd be happy to take up python-pgsql's maintenance. I've gotten a lot
out of Fedora and would like to give something back.
However, Felix Schwarz pointed out that python-psycopg2 also provides
a database interface for Python and is far more popular.
I wouldn't mind maintaining python-pgsql anyway, if there are people
who use it despite the availability of python-psycopg2.
But perhaps there would be a better use for my time. That is, would
the community be better off if python-pgsql were completely abandoned,
and I contributed in some other way?
Ever Faithful,
Don Quixote
