Important notice to all: some modules exist in /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages, such as osso or gst-0.10. They might not need porting. But it needs testing.

Anyway python2.7 has a buggy postinst, which goes mad if /usr/lib/python2.7 exists, so we need to put everything on hold until it's fixed. Reporting it to Aapo right now.

pichlo: I understand What about taking some of the non-crucial, non-upstream packages like python-hildon? Then you can take as much time as you want (it's no blocker, nothing upstream depends on it, it's more about maintaining compatibility, etc.) to learn more about the packaging.
And if you want to learn something about the packaging, here's something for you [1].
