To do what?
To find canonical docs. With "canonical" I mean current docs from the
upstream.
I think Nick's point probably covers this discussion, but you haven't
said what you want docs *for*. pip? setuptools? wheel?something else?
If you are wearing new comer glasses, you don't know exactly what you are
looking for.
If you would know that, then you would be an expert. And then you don't need a
guiding hand.
They are in various places, which you can hunt out via pypi or google.
It's not hard to do, but certainly it's true that it's harder to find
things than you'd want if you were paying for a well-documented
service. But given that you're not paying anything, and no-one working
on Python packaging has any obligation to meet your expectations,
you'll need to either lower the level of your expectations, pay
someone to provide what you're looking for, or offer your own time and
energy to address the issues you find. Simply making vague complaints
on this list isn't particularly productive.
The complaint is vague? Here is it more precise:
Quoting https://www.pypa.io/en/latest/
{{{
They host projects on github and bitbucket, and discuss issues on the pypa-dev
and distutils-sig mailing lists.
}}}
Why two repo providers, why two mailing lists. This confuses new comers.
I think this is precise feedback.
Sorry if that's not the response you were hoping for, and in
particular if you have a pressing need for support that we're not
providing, I do understand how that can be a problem for you, but as
Nick says, this is the reality of relying on software that's provided
to you free of charge.
Yes, Nich is right.
Regards,
Thomas
