Are stubs for `scp` suitable for typeshed?

Package Details

• Repository: https://github.com/jbardin/scp.py
• PyPI project: https://pypi.org/project/scp/

Context

I am currently using the scp package in a typed project. While the package includes some type hints as # type: comments (to maintain compatibility with old Python versions), they are outdated and imprecise. For example, there are missing arguments in the latest release.

The upstream repository appears to be mostly unmaintained, so an upstream fix is unlikely. However, since the package already contains type comments, I wanted to check typeshed's policy before proceeding.

Would typeshed be open to accepting stubs for this package? If so, I would be happy to submit them

In general, these stubs are fine to be included. That said, we might potentially remove them again when they start to cause problems. Still, including the stubs for now seems fine for me.

(I'm closing this issue, as we don't keep stub requests open. But what I said above still applies: We're okay with including these stubs, if you or someone else opens a PR.)
