The last gnome-python code changes took place in April 2011:
https://git.gnome.org/browse/archive/gnome-python/log/

This project is not under active development anymore.

This project got recently archived in GNOME Git.

It is currently unlikely that there will be any further active development.

Closing this report as WONTFIX as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping to reflect reality. Please feel free to reopen this bug report in the future if anyone takes the responsibility for active development again. If you are interested in maintainership, inform https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list

gnome-python wrapped GNOME 2's core libraries which are all deprecated and not under development anymore. 
For Python in GNOME 3, see https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/PyGObject and its gobject-introspection approach.
