Apparently, there is a service running somewhere that computes
cheesecake
data for PyPI packages;
it also sends them to PyPI. People have expressed to concerns that any
kind of ranking based on kwalitee sounds fairly useless.
I would like to see something like
Cheesecake rating NNN/MMM
where the rating links to the full report so I can decide whether the
missed points are things I am concerned about or not.
Personally, I don't want to see any aggregates of incommensurable observations
ever. I don't mind seeing a dashboard of individual observations (even if I
disagree with many of the individual measurements), but aggregating them with
arbitrary weights into a single score is simply wrong. I disagree with including
user ratings, too, for much the same reasons.
