I'd prefer to contribute via the Mailing list, is that no longer an
option?
Many thanks

It is an option, just more inconvenient for us.

Unfortunately the software hasn't had an official release in around 10
years. The original author has abandoned the project and someone has
forked (the fork is who I point to in the URL). Whilst he has added
support for Python3 there has not been a new release as yet.
My plan was to keep it as it is whilst in testing, an then once it has
been updated, update the package to use python3 and move into community.

No getting in until it is python3, please ask the new upstream to tag a
python3 release
