Well like it or not Tarek is not going to do it. So who will? You, or a new volunteer?
Well, we don't even know if Éric actually volunteers for maintaining distutils.
He does as long as I help him.
Note that he is a student so he will have less free time as soon as he's back too school of course, so he cannot guarantee, foresee, the amount of free time per week he will have next year.
Otherwise the module will just rot as Tarek said, until distutils2 replaces it. This is certainly a less than optimal transition, but if distutils2 matures quickly enough it will not be as painful as it seems. (much less painful anyway than the state of distutils before Tarek started maintenance on it)
