Hi,
Is there any place other than here to make some feedback on what you're
proposing via pypm ?
There is a 'Give Site Feedback' link in the footer of the site. Or
activepython-feedb...@activestate.com - but you can also directly email me.
I can see that the emails appears in clear for instance, and I don't
think it is a good idea. Spammers bots are looking for that.
Actually, they don't. Emails are obfustcated using ROT13 and decoded in
the browser. Take a look at the HTML source.
Also, even if the service you propose is great (that's good to know
there are some ways to get binary packages easily), adding another tool
(pypm) to the stack, and refering only to this one on your pages seems a
bit confusing. People start to use tools like setuptools/distribute and
pip, and, oh, there is another one !
I suppose we could discuss about the *relation* between the various
tools in the site FAQ: pip and easy_install are primarily source-based
installers (except - easy_install supports egg/binst too), while PyPM is
a binary-based installer .. somewhat similar to apt-get/rpm. I generally
recommend <http://goo.gl/mUTBd> ActivePython users to install the
package using PyPM, and only if that fails, attempt the same using
pip/easy_install ... which could also go to the FAQ.
Otherwise, I think you're adding some great things to the current index:
I do like to have a feed with the failing builds and the list of imports
with the same name.
I'm glad that you like it!
