Hello there,

not dedicate Django the time it deserves. I am looking for someone or persons
willing to take
- python-django
- python-django-angular
- python-django-appconf
- python-django-authority

Thank you Matthias for maintaining Django and for doing this.
As one of the Fedora's Python maintainers I recognize Django as a package that
many other packages in Fedora BuildRequire for tests or even Require to
function. OTOH I don't believe that a Linux distribution, such as Fedora Linux,
needs to provide Django as an installable RPM for developers/admins to run
their apps on. For that reason I'd rather not become the new main admin of this
package, but I will gladly remain a co-maintainer and help the new person
however I can.
