That's a good start, it wouldn't hurt to find a few more.

Here's a good way to find some, I would skip over the older ones unless you
find one you are really interested in:

There is a Fedora Python SIG you may want to join then:

We can certainly work towards me becoming your sponsor but if someone in the
Python SIG is intereated in becoming your sponsor then that's probably a better
fit.

That looks pretty neat. I wouldn't mind trying it out but it may be a bit
overkill for my 2 desktop and 3 laptop home network :)

Yeah, we should use Fedora supplied packages wherever possible. If you want to
start working towards getting it into Fedora the best option might be to start
with COPR[1] as the only real requirement is that all the content is legal
(acceptable license). The full packaging guidelines don't apply.
