I should clarify a few things though: I'm not on the Ubuntu release  
team (I work on Launchpad) and AFAIK Ubuntu simply inherits Debian's  
policy here.  Speaking purely as a user, I think Debian is wrong and  
I've reported bugs on it, and I think they are open to a compromise  
that can work for everyone.  That's as much as I can do (short of  
turning off Python's svn notifications and sneaking a change in -- but  
if I had that power as Python's RM, I'd use it for much more important  
things[1] :).
