[Python-ideas] Re: Developer messages on install (pip, poetry, etc.)
Hi Ned, That is a very different issue as the ads are similar to what we see when browsing. These ads are commonly provided by 3rd party ad networks and not directly related to the package maintainer. As for this proposal, think of it as links, messages, or announcements specific to the package/library. We install these packages using pip, poetry, etc. but we don't see anything in the terminal that gives them credit for their work.

I think that feature is best discussed in the packaging SIG rather than here. This is for proposed language and standard library features, while this will, I think, be a packaging feature. Unfortunately I don't know where the right place to discuss packaging proposals like this is. Perhaps try here? https://discuss.python.org/c/packaging There may be a mailing list as well. -- Steven ___ Python-ideas mailing list -- python-ideas@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-ideas-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-ideas.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-ideas@python.org/message/FSKOSJLS5K6FJJS5O3U5NREEQC3CFEH5/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
