Nikos, would you like to maintain this packages too? Or maybe somebody from Python herd maintainers want?

Whoever Nikos is see me about proxy maintaining it under my support, however the same equally applies to timo@rothenpieler.org
Nikos, tell us (here or proxy-maint@) if you want to maintain these and I will push them to the tree for you
When you commit it, please also update the wiki [1]. [1]:https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Python/Virtuals
(Sorry for the delay.) > Nikos, tell us (here or proxy-maint@) if you want to maintain these and I > will push them to the tree for you Yes, since singledispatch is needed by livestreamer for Python <3.4, I can maintain them together.

I am a bit confused about the virtual and bare in mind I don't understand python very well. Does the virtual satisfy the "either python3.4 or the singledispatch package" requirement?
Anyone to address my comments?
ping again
singledispatch is a feature that is part of python3.4. Prior versions need the external library. So packages which needs singledispatch just depend on the virtual and get either a recent enough python or the library.
Thanks. Since you have done all the work here, would you like to maintain it as well?
Ian Delaney has committed it before I did myself so closing this bug.
