@astraluma@tacobelllabs.net @pypi@fosstodon.org very ironic that maintenance effort was described as a motivation for removing pgp support when pypi seems to only fund headcount for security and nothing for feature work. i have pip changes i've spent years responding to feedback on, that a pypi maintainer confirmed would significantly reduce pypi bandwidth costs, which have been difficult enough to pass through that i've basically given up on merging https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/12921

@hipsterelectron@circumstances.run @pypi@fosstodon.org the PSF staff page lists: * Director of Infrastructure * Python Security Developer in Residence * PyPI Safety and Security Engineer * Infrastructure Engineer * PyPI Support Specialist idk what exactly they all do or what projects are in scope, but "nothing for feature work" seems like somewhat of an exaggeration.
