I read the maintainers list. I don't like empty lines. If a module has no maintainer, it should not be listed in this file. Since Python3 module names are different, if we copy the list to Python2, maintaining this list between Python2 and Python3 will be more difficult. Yes, some modules have no dedicated maitainer, but it doesn't mean that the module is dead. And I see a list without maintainer as a dead module.

Interest Area: algorithms has no maintainer... why is algorithms listed in maintainer list? Does it mean that people not listed in this line are not interested by algorithms?

Even if it's more difficult to maintain two versions of this file (Python2 and Python3), I would like to see it in Python2 (so I'm +1 for this issue).
