Hello distutils-sig! This email comes to you by way of an issue I filed ( https://github.com/pypa/setuptools/issues/1276), the tl:dr; of which is:
I would like it to be easier for packages and package maintainers to indicate how they want to be thanked or funded for their work. I created https://pypi.org/project/thanks/ to help with this, but right now it's reading from a JSON blob maintained by the library. I would prefer to read from the packages themselves, and the `project_urls` dict seems like a good place to do so. Here is an example from the thanks project: https://github.com/phildini/thanks/commit/a4e549338eb3e3c70b1dd5628b38dcbdbf63443a What I am planning to do: - Update the documentation and sample project with a `Project-URL: Funding` item, to encourage maintainers to add this information. What I would love to know from this list: - What do we think of the name "Funding"? Would you prefer "Thanks"? Cheers, and thank you for your time. Philip
