You're leaving out some important words from that sentence. Words like, "for some people" and "who choose to depend on projects using them". PyPI isn't your private personal playground. Other people have rights, too. > This discussion has since a long time gone past reason into pure stop energy. I agree - hardly anyone is giving any reasoning that justifies why one group of people should have their projects censored to benefit a few blowhards on Catalog-SIG. Carl's the only person who's even *tried* giving a justification. Everyone else just shuts up or changes the subject when I ask that question. I'll ask it again: why should *thousands* of projects be censored or made to change their release processes, because *you* can't be bothered to cache the distributions of the projects you depend on? Not, why would it be a good idea for them to change anyway. Why should they be *forced* to do it? Bonus points: answer why, *every time* somebody proposes a way of improving things that doesn't *ban* external hosting, you guys go all stop energy on that and derail the discussion with why it has to be total. AFAICT, you're the ones stopping things moving forward here, filibustering against every possible compromise. _______________________________________________ Catalog-SIG mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/catalog-sig
