Some people are saying "files uploaded" vs. "downloadable packages".
I don't like the "files uploaded" criterion because IMO it's a
perfectly valid use case to list a package on PyPI which is only
available via external revision control.

Heck, a project that only has planning documents and a reasonably
active mailing list should still qualify for PyPI listing, else the
original distutils-sig would not have qualified for reserving the name
"distutils" on PyPI, before its first release.  ;-)
