I think index.python.org is a terrible name.  archive.python.org is
better, by a little bit.

Or you could have both -- archive.python.org as the download site (maybe easier to set up mirroring with a separate domain name -- download.python.org would be just as good in that respect), maybe index.python.org as the web frontend (what PyPI has been providing all along). Or catalog.python.org, or packages.python.org -- they are all just fine. I think they all are reasonably easy to pronounce, aren't redundant (pypi.python.org would be redundant, and hard to pronounce), and pretty clear about what (generally) they provide.


It's boring, but I think it's okay if PyPI ultimately comes off as boring, as long as it works well and is easy to use. I think a separate domain name would be nice, though, whatever the domain name might be. But I really think domain names look more professional when they are painted blue ;)
