Firstly, a massive apology - I didn't check the version of
python-pytest-asyncio in unstable, and so hadn't noticed that you'd
updated it really recently.  Mea culpa.

Second, my suggestion of moving it to the team was not meant in any
way to say that I don't appreciate the amazing job you're doing.  In
fact, most packages in the Python Team repository are in reality
maintained by one person; the primary benefits of being within the
team are the mutual support and the ability to keep packages
up-to-date or fixed if there are some problems and the maintainer
can't get to them.  (And sometimes the Debian Janitor fixes issues in
packages automatically.)

So it's entirely up to you; I can't personally take on the package
(I'm already overloaded), but if you are happy to continue maintaining
it, would you consider migrating it to the team repository?

Best wishes,

   Julian
