That's a good point - I had a range of issues assigned to me where I'd
been telling myself "I'll get to that soon" for months, and instead
kept finding other tasks to work on that I considered higher priority.
That's a bad thing for me to be doing, as it ends up blocking other
people from deciding they're interested in working on those issues and
moving them forward.

I've now reset the assignee on all such issues to accurately reflect
the fact I'm not currently working on them. (A couple of those are
test suite refactorings with patches already submitted, so mentors
willing to pick them up would be greatly appreciated! If anyone has
more time available than I do, http://bugs.python.org/issue9517 would
a good place to start for that specific aspect)

I also dropped myself from the issue assignment list in the triaging
guide - while I'm happy to help out with reviews, actually assigning
me issues that aren't work or PEP 432 related is currently a good way
to see them languish indefinitely :(

Regards,
Nick.
