OK, I am going to write the PEP I proposed a week or so ago, listing all modules and packages within the stdlib that are maintained externally so we have a central place to go for contact info or where to report bugs on issues. This should only apply to modules that want bugs reported outside of the Python tracker and have a separate dev track. People who just use the Python repository as their mainline version can just be left out.

For each package I need the name of the module, the name of the maintainer, homepage of the module outside of Python, and where to report bugs. Do people think we need to document the version that has been imported into Python and when that was done as well? Anyway, here is a list of the packages that I think have outside maintenance (or at least have been at some point). Anyone who has info on them that I need, please let me know the details. Also, if I missed any, obviously speak up: - bsddb (still external?) - sqlite - ctypes Maintainer: Thomas Heller Homepage: http://starship.python.net/crew/theller/ctypes/ Where to report bugs: I do not care. I'll try to keep track of both the python bug tracker and the ctypes tracker on the SF pages.
