1. more users are familiar with Django templates than with TAL

That an interesting and probably incorrect assertion.

Some proof from my side.

Your turn.

Pointless posturing.
Google trends don't provide a way to accurately compare the usage of two templating languages. The whole Plone community uses TAL, not to mention the rest of the Zope world, all the people who use chameleon or one of the other python TAL implementations, not to mention the TAL implementations in other languages such as Java and PHP.

4. Django templates seems way more simple and no less powerful

That's just plain wrong.

Ok. Then answer the original question. How to override html title
attribute for a subset of PyPI pages?

The root template is likely a macro template, if it hasn't been designed to allow customising on a per-page basis, you'd need to modify it:

<title metal:define-slot="title"...

Then in the specific template, fill that slot:

<title metal:fill-slot="title"...

Ok. Personal question then - do you support moving PyPI to App Engine?

Absolutely not.

Do you support moving PyPI to other cloud platform?

+0.

I'm in favour of mirrors, how those mirrors are implemented I don't really care, as long as the http api they expose is consistent and, more importantly, provided the tools around (ie: setuptools) use them.

If that last issue isn't solved, mirrors are cute and maybe useful in emergencies where you're prepared to go and manually download packages, but otherwise they're essentially useless.

cheers,

Chris
