PEP 541 Request: suds

[phillbaker]

Project to be claimed

suds: https://pypi.org/project/suds

Your PyPI username

phillbaker: https://pypi.org/user/phillbaker

Reasons for the request

We believe the project has been abandoned:

• The pypi package has not had a release in over 10 years
• The git repo for the owner has not had a commit in 6 years (https://github.com/jortel/suds)

A community based maintenance fork has been going for several years now: https://github.com/suds-community/suds/. See discussion here with list of forks: suds-community/suds#1

Maintenance or replacement?

Code of Conduct

• I agree to follow the PSF Code of Conduct

Other reasons to restore a maintenance team for this project:

• Because it's been unmaintained, it's had a series of forks exposing the same Python package ("suds"), leading to lots of toil and a poor experience for users.

I will now start the reachability process, as part of it I'm tagging GitHub user @jortel who I believe is the owner of the project.
