In keeping with the Python Package Guidelines[1], I am requesting that python-openid[2] be merged into python2-openid[3]. The original package had been orphaned for some time, and I have asked the maintainers of dependent packages to switch their dependencies to python2-openid. It appears to me that the only packages still listing python-openid are orphans and have been for a least a year; all packages with active maintainers have switched accordingly. Prior to sending this request, I have adopted at least one of the remaining orphaned packages still depending on python-openid and will be updating its dependencies this evening.
