The top packages look a bit different than it did 10 months ago, surprisingly
to me PIL has severely dropped off from where it had ~63k 10 months ago and it

I can provide plausible explanations for both of those:
* Pillow adoption progressively displacing PIL usage
Wow that's amazing, thanks for those numbers Donald \o/.
To correlate (apropos of nothing) it looks like Pillow's PyPI numbers
are slightly up over the past year (Pillow is released quarterly):
$ vanity -q pillow==2.7.0
Pillow 2.7.0 has been downloaded 934,119 times!
$ vanity -q pillow=={2.8.0,2.8.1,2.8.2}
Pillow 2.8.0 has been downloaded 41,433 times!
Pillow 2.8.1 has been downloaded 788,788 times!
Pillow 2.8.2 has been downloaded 500,565 times!
Pillow, Pillow and Pillow have been downloaded 1,330,786 times!
$ vanity -q pillow==2.9.0
Pillow 2.9.0 has been downloaded 1,083,447 times!
* Pygame Zero lowering barriers to entry for PyGame usage in education
Cheers,
Nick.
P.S. If folks haven't seen PyGame Zero, it's a pretty neat concept:
