Can python-cherrypy be removed from needsign queue and how to handle incompatible package upgrades

Hi all,

Can someone that has the proper priviledges on the build system remove
python-cherrypy from the needsign queue? I tried to kill the build
using plague-client kill but this did not work for some reason.

Does anyone have suggestions on how to handle this package upgrade to
2.1: it is an upgrade in functionality compared to 2.0 and contains a
number of bugfixes but it is incompatible with the previous release.
Toshio suggested creating a new package cherrypy20 for the old version
but I think this might be overkill because I think that anyone who is
using cherrypy will upgrade to 2.1 anyhow. Is there a general policy
for this kind of thing?

See:

Greets,
  Gijs
