I started working on it but I got stuck when I took a shot at running
the tests as they revealed some dependencies (e.g. microsofttranslator)
for which I have no interest in packaging them.

There is also the issue of a privacy breach because the code uses
JavaScript from www.google.com/jsapi.

The documentation source is also bogus as it contains minified JS-files 
for which I'd have too check if they can be symlinked by sphinxdoc.

And of course there are .pyc files in the source tarball from pypi
which lintian dislikes.

To be honest, I'm no longer interested in getting this package up to
DPMT standards as is a mess, even after I put a considerable amount of
time into polishing it up. Because of it's bad state I also got rid of
it in all of my projects ... 

Maybe someone other would like to give it a shot. I'll push my changes
but this leaves the package still at FTBFS.

Cheers,
