I had a quick look through this, and it does look like it should provide a useful framework for scanning PyPI and updating the results. :-) What I'm proposing differs in that it would need to download files from PyPI - basically all of them, if we're thorough about it. I imagine that's going to involve a lot of data transfer. Do we know what order of magnitude we're talking about? Is it so large that we should be thinking of running the scanner in the same data centre as the file storage? Thomas
