Future of GpgME python bindings on PyPi

Ingo, Werner,

what is the state of the python bindings and g10code's plan for it?

Paul and myself could try to get at least the current version
of https://git.gnupg.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=gpgmepy.git;a=summary
up to Pypi. It seems helpful to show that the bindings still exist.

Technical: What is the python version number of current main branch?
setup.py will generate 2.0.0b4, is this correct or should it be
  2.0.0.dev4 or so?

(Background for others, Python modules' version numbering is different
from Semver, see 
https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/discussions/versioning/)

I am acting as interims holder of the access, until a new maintainer is found.

Would you grant Paul and myself write access?
We are planning some interims maintenance.
Are you okay with me giving Paul access to gpg's PyPi entry?

That means you are using gpgmepy, aka python3-gpg?
We saw that the last commits all came from you. :)

Best Regards,
