Good, I'm one of those people, sadly my only help may be to ask "how is
this bit going to be done?".
The tasks discussed so far are:
- version definition (http://wiki.python.org/moin/DistutilsVersionFight)
- egg.info standardification (PEP 376)
- metadata enhancement (rewrite PEP 345)
- static metadata definition work (*)
These all seem to be a subset of the last one, right?
- creation of a network of OS packager people
This would be useful...
- PyPI mirroring (PEP 381)
I don't see why PyPI isn't just ported to GAE with an S3 data storage
bit and be done with it... Offline mirrors for people behind firewalls
already have solutions out there...
Each one of this task has a leader, except the one with (*). I just got back
from travelling, and I will reorganize
http://wiki.python.org/moin/Distutils asap to it is up-to-date.
Cool, is this the focal point to track your activities?
If you want to work on one of this task or feel there's a new task you can
start, please, join Distutils SIG or contact me,
Well, I think my "big list" breaks down roughly as tasks, of which I
think the stuff you're already doing will hopefully take care of the
first 2, but what about the rest. If labour shortage is all that's
stopping this, then let me know ;-)
