And it is hosted on Sourceforge. But you're right, there is nothing wrong with the package. That includes the fact that it's hosted external to PyPI. Why should we force numpy to change? Whatever their reasons for hosting on Sourceforge, it is their package and their choice and we should respect that and not try to dictate where they host it. -- Steven D'Aprano _______________________________________________ Catalog-SIG mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/catalog-sig
