Those of you who are new to Python: I'm forwarding a request <https://mail.python.org/pipermail/edu-sig/2019-June/012111.html> from Nicole Harris <https://whoisnicoleharris.com/>, the user experience designer for the Python Package Index.
> Hi folks, My name is Nicole - I work on PyPI.org <https://pypi.org/>, which is the principal repository for sharing Python packages. I am searching for new Pythonistas to help me user test some new security features on the website - specifically enabling/disabling two factor authentication. The point of these tests is to make sure that the new PyPI interfaces are easy to understand for people who are *not* experienced PyPI.org users. Things needed to participate: - An internet connection that is fast enough to be able to share screens - A smart phone on which we can install a TOTP application (most Androids or iPhones should work just fine) - 30 minutes to donate to the PyPI team Things *not* needed to participate: - Experience using PyPI.org (in fact, the less experience, the better) - An active PyPI account (we can set this up during the test) - Python experience If this is interesting to you, or members of your community, please sign up here: calendly.com/nlhkabu/pypi Thanks for your time! Nicole Please feel free to forward this publicly or privately. These tests will help us as we work to secure the entire Python ecosystem. (If you're an experienced PyPI user, especially if you maintain packages on PyPI, you may be interested in more details on our security work <https://pyfound.blogspot.com/2019/06/pypi-now-supports-two-factor-login-via.html>.)
