The key projects list is already aimed more at folks wanting to dive into the details of how PyPA and the Python packaging ecosystem actually work in practice (e.g. packaging and distlib are both listed, and those are really only relevant to folks writing their own packaging related tools). The "definitely relevant to end users" list is the one at https://packaging.python.org/guides/tool-recommendations/ (and after discussing the idea with Thomas, we're not going to add flit there until after its 1.0 release) Cheers, Nick. -- Nick Coghlan | ncogh...@gmail.com | Brisbane, Australia _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - Distutils-SIG@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
