I am also interested and can drive the Python side of discussions/reviews. I am
definitely also interested in the technical side of changes, but if someone can
commit to co-maintaining with me focusing more on that side, it would be
optimal.

Similarly, I am also have a bottleneck on time commitments, but that mostly
affects development or reviewing large changes. I work remotely, so I basically
spend all day in front of the computer, which means I should be fairly
responsive for things that don't require me to take a big chunk of my time
aside.
