this isn't a hard requirement that software packages are fitting exactly
into some packaging team. Don't think about this too much. It's fine if
you ask here for sponsorship before a possible nice package isn't
finding it's way into Debian. It's easy to change a maintainer field.

Maybe it was written not clearly from my side in previous emails, I've
nothing against Python, contrary, I like Python! It's the kind of
development that's happen in Flatcam (or not) were I disagree with.

And I've also learned, not every FOSS is worth to get packaged for Debian.
