I hereby volunteer to take over maintainership of pythonX.Y packages. 
However, if I were to maintain them, I would do this myself, without any 
co-maintainers. (At least formally and initially: I'm certainly going to 
ask you for help with certain boring^W tasks. And I don't vow to never 
seek co-maintainers in the future.)

That said, I don't believe that forcibly changing the maintainer of 
Python interpreter packages is the correct course of action. I'm not 
personally happy with the way they are maintainer, but it's not nearly 
as bad as to justify such action.
