Being proactive with that package probably means submitting patches and waiting. When there are active module maintainers, other contributors (including committers) generally refrain from committing semantic changes and defer to the package owner (effbot for ElementTree, Barry for email, Ippolito for json, Vinay for logging, Skip and Barry for csv, me for itertools and collections, Kurt for IDLE, etc).

Right, so who looks after httplib?

The process can be maddenly slow (waiting for an owner to have the time and inclination) but it has its advantages over the long-term.

Okay, I guess I should just bug Barry then?

But still, no answer to my original question...
