Possibly such user-contributed content would be valuable anyway
https://alternativeto.net but for PyPI? :)
Or just more general reviews/warnings/info. "Doesn't work with
IronPython", "Works fine on 3.5 even though it doesn't say so", etc.
Restrict it to 140 chars, signed in users, only allow linking to other
PyPI packages, let the maintainer delete comments (or mark them as
disputed) and I think you'd avoid abuse (or rants/detailed bug
reports/etc.). Maybe automatically clear all comments on each new
release as well.
Doesn't have to be complicated and fancy - just enough that users can
help each other when maintainers disappear.
Cheers,
Steve
