Rolling up answers to multiple questions in here.
1) Warehouse is the name of the software that will power PyPI 2.0.
2) Nothing about the future of Warehouse is set in stone and API
breakages and the like will be discussed before hand.
3) The way the migration was going to work was posted to this list
already
(https://mail.python.org/pipermail/distutils-sig/2013-July/022096.html).
4) In regards to the PyPISSH I don't know exactly what tooling I want to
replace it with, it might
simply be a saner implementation of SSH Authentication, it might be TLS
Client Certs,
or OAuth Tokens. Personally I'm leaning towards TLS Client Certs and
possibly OAuth
tokens but that will be decided down the road.
5) There are no real discussions about Warehouse yet, there is a github repo
with
issues and I sound future ideas off a few folks as I process ideas I want
to
implement but that doesn't preclude eventual discussion about them.
Warehouse right now (which it's stalled waiting on some DB maintenance) is
focused
primarily on reimplementing the API of PyPI 1.0 and then adding a UX ontop of
that. New
features and new APIs and the like will come later and will be standards based
and
discussed. I expect there can (and will) be multiple implementations of the
standard but
there is not going to be much getting around the fact that the code that powers
PyPI
is going to be the "standard" implementation. This does not mean that there
won't be
a defined standard and hopefully the good folks making alternate
implementations like
Holger's devpi will keep me to task for defining and documenting everything.
Also important to note that I do not consider the UX to be something that
requires
discussion to change. This is somewhat harder with PyPI which doesn't separate
UX
and API but that will be replicated for API usage but not for UX usage in
Warehouse.
If I missed anything just reask it or I can clarify points as well.
