(This week's report will be a brief update, written by Laura Hampton. Sumana 
will return later this week.)   

We are continuing to approach the Launch: Redirect pypi.python.org to pypi.org 
milestone[1]. The redirect is scheduled to happen on Monday, April 16th.  The 
Warehouse team has been busy closing and responding to issues from legacy PyPI 
[2], and Dustin is already preparing to remove the beta banner from Warehouse 
when we reach the Launch milestone[3]. Ernest is working on load-testing 
infrastructure in anticipation of the launch. We have continued to work on user 
testing[4], improving accessibility[5], and making changes based on our 
testers' feedback[6]. Thank you to Nicole for running the tests, and to 
everyone who helped test and contributed feedback.   

You can help this week by opining in our "needs discussion" issues [7]. If you 
have expertise in JavaScript, please consider looking at our frontend testing 
approach[8].  If you are new to the project, please check out our issues 
labeled "good first issue", or consider contacting Nicole about being a subject 
or interviewer for user tests[9].  If you will be at PyCon US in Cleveland next 
month, we will be sprinting, and we'd love to have you join us[10].

Thanks to Mozilla for their support for the PyPI & Warehouse work![11][12]
