It would be easiest if you could come into distutils-sig as I'm not subscribed to python-dev (posting from gmane, hopefully this works!) and we can help you figure out how to use the officially supported APIs to access the information you need as well as figure out a date when we can shut it down again? We want to disable this particular URL because it accounts for a large amount of the slow downs in PyPI and we're not going to be able to continue supporting it into the future. ___ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
