Agreed with Antoine here the additional workflow/repo/build process/etc sucks Besides - who cares if only a subset of users would be interested in our workflow? If it's more than 0, and it helps bring on new contributors, who cares? If we can make it easier to maintain information, and find that information, why not do it? jesse _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
