Policy does not require to set XS-Python-Version except for pycentral -
at least that's how Manoj[1] and myself seem to understand [2]. It is
only appreciated to set it for all packages. It would make sense to make
setting XS_Python-Version a must or all packages which wouldn't have
'all' in there.


Cheers,

Bernd
