@pradyunsg @glyph @hynek @coderanger As someone very close to both ecosystems, I can’t stress enough how important it is to not only get funding but to build lasting governance structures that can handle other stakeholders wanting to participate. Python did that well IMO with the PSF, the packaging ecosystem around it… not so much. There is still time though!
@jezdez @pradyunsg @glyph @coderanger Having suffered through the packaging open space at PyCon US 2023 I have exactly 0 hope that will happen. The best we can hope for is the PSF taking over.
@hynek @pradyunsg @glyph @coderanger I’m not sure what you mean, do you mean the summit? I don’t recall an open space last year TBH.
@jezdez @pradyunsg @glyph @coderanger Yes, summit, sorry.
@hynek @pradyunsg @glyph @coderanger Shrug, I felt this year was more effective, and led to some good conversations that acknowledged the difficulties of coordinating, had many new faces and also had Astral folks join, among other corpo stakeholders. The User Success WG idea was born which has now been established: https://github.com/psf/user-success-wg
