It's a *fantastic* argument. > By the same logic, PyPI should not reject > *any* upload, to avoid “forcing” uploaders to do extra work. Uhhhh.... yes? Which of course is how it works? The comment confused me, I don't understand what you are trying to say. > No, PyPI needs to reject uploads on some criteria; those criteria will > necessarily involve work (whether manual or automated) on the part of > uploaders. This discussion is about what those criteria should be. No, it does not need to do that at all, and no, the discussion isn't about that in any way. The only discussion related to that has been about requiring the upload of the source. That's it. Nobody has to my knowledge suggested any other requirements. -- Lennart Regebro: http://regebro.wordpress.com/ Python 3 Porting: http://python-incompatibility.googlecode.com/ +33 661 58 14 64 _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - Distutils-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
