I understand the feeling but:

1. It's inactivity _in the Debian Python team_ only. That doesn't mean 
these people aren't active members of the Debian community :)

2. That info is already public: 
https://salsa.debian.org/groups/python-team/packages/-/group_members?sort=oldest_last_activity

If someone wants to write a script that poll the Gitlab API and run such 
a service, it would really be cool! I'm not planning on doing that 
though, I'll mostly go "click click click" for a few minutes on the web 
interface and be done with it :P
