OK. That's not what I understood since he proposed a cloud system run by the PSF for the PyPI mirrors. Which implied (to me) those were official mirrors. The goal of the PEP is to address the official mirrors of course, listed at the mirrors.pypi.python.org DNS (and also provide a protocol others can reuse as well) Tarek -- Tarek Ziadé | http://ziade.org _______________________________________________ Catalog-SIG mailing list Catalog-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/catalog-sig
