As I announced yesterday[1], here and on the pypi-announce[2] and general Python announcement[3] lists, we have shut down legacy.pypi.org, on schedule. (See the notes from our final weekly call[4], a screenshot of all our closed milestones[5], a screenshot of the hit ratio for Legacy going to 0%[6], and Ernest pouring out a toast to the old codebase[7].)
This is the last weekly report you'll get from me on this project, as the MOSS funding has nearly run out (we set aside a little for me to run the PyCon sprint and for Nicole to run the EuroPython sprint). Thanks so much to Mozilla's Open Source Support program for the award[8] that enabled this work[9]. And thanks to the PSF and its Packaging Working Group[10] for facilitating it. Highlights from the last week: The podcast Talk Python To Me released an episode interviewing Dustin Ingram, Nicole Harris, and Ernest W. Durbin III about Warehouse -- you can listen[11] or read the transcript[12]. And the Python Bytes podcast had a short chat about Warehouse[13] as well. Ernest sunset Legacy[14], fixed a subsequent outage[15] (my fault for putting a hostname in the title of a blog post!), updated a cabotage setting[16], updated CDN configuration[17], and fixed another service disruption[18]. And he improved search for XML-RPC endpoint users[19]. Since we got 1700+ responses to the "buy a feature" survey[20], we took down the banner[21] -- Nicole notes that the data is really useful and will really help with redesigning the project detail page! She also fixed modal alignment[22] and table alignment[23] in IE11. Dustin replaced our Twisted usage with gunicorn[24] and fixed an edge case concerning identical canonical versions of a release[25], and Dustin and Ernest made old pypi.python.org links for files, display actions[26], search and browse actions[27] redirect appropriately. And Dustin merged "Support XML-RPC multicall"[28] and then "Skip tweens for XML-RPC multicall subrequests"[29] then "Deprecate XML-RPC MultiCall"[30] and I think we've all had sequences like that in our lives. Laura Hampton and I ran a Warehouse sprint night[31] in New York City (giving participants several tasks at varying difficulty levels[32]), where Corey Girard helped us make profile pages display "you" versus a username more logically[33] -- thanks, Corey! -- and Kshitij Chawla found a setup issue[34]. And the team found some more developer experience snags and got to fixing them: PyPUG instructions[35], the README[36], Docker instructions[37], discoverability for the architecture overview[38]. We are slowing down a bit on pull request review and issue response as our dedicated time on Warehouse comes to a close, but we still did a lot of review and replying. Thanks to the volunteers who got pull requests merged in the past week: * nixjdm, who added description_content_type to the JSON API[39] * cheungnj, who improved how we display the "last released" date on a project[40] * aalmazan, who fixed how we handle tab cycling inside active modals[41] * alex, who fixed a pytest argument[42] * kpayson64, who updated wheel types Warehouse supports[43] (see the followup conversation, on whether PyPI should allow Linux wheel uploads for ARM[44]) Special shoutout to GitHub user jdufresne[45] who has submitted a bunch of pull requests to various projects, including setuptools[46], updating their URLs from pypi.python.org to pypi.org (example[47]). I've done some similar issue-opening (example[48]). And thanks to Donald Stufft for helping with the infrastructure changeover[49]! You can help by: * updating the distutils docs[50] to reflect how PyPI currently works * giving yeraydiazdiaz feedback on this approach to automated frontend testing[51] * keeping an eye on Warehouse pull requests and reviewing[52] them * telling hiring managers you know to consider hiring Ernest[53] and giving him paid time to work on PyPI * finding us at PyCon North America[54] and giving us friendly feedback Dustin, Ernest, Laura, Nicole and I will continue volunteering a few hours per week around here, just as many of us did before the project. We're all grateful we got to work together and make this happen, and hope to have further paid opportunities to dedicate time to this infrastructure and its symbiotic community. -- Sumana Harihareswara (basically my last note as) Warehouse/PyPI project manager PyPA member Packaging Working Group member Changeset Consulting -- open to new client engagements starting in June/jul...@changeset.nyc Links: 1. https://mail.python.org/mm3/archives/list/pypi-annou...@python.org/thread/2HTWYE4WPCOTIIIE3Z2IKLGDHYCWVR2J/ 2. https://mail.python.org/mm3/archives/list/pypi-annou...@python.org/thread/2HTWYE4WPCOTIIIE3Z2IKLGDHYCWVR2J/ 3. https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-announce-list/2018-April/011916.html 4. https://wiki.python.org/psf/PackagingWG/2018-04-30-Warehouse 5. https://twitter.com/di_codes/status/990982434572439554 6. https://twitter.com/EWDurbin/status/990959524768112640 7. https://twitter.com/EWDurbin/status/990966616803422208 8. https://pyfound.blogspot.com/2017/11/the-psf-awarded-moss-grant-pypi.html 9. https://blog.mozilla.org/blog/2018/01/23/moss-q4-supporting-python-ecosystem/ 10. https://wiki.python.org/psf/PackagingWG 11. https://talkpython.fm/episodes/show/159/inside-the-new-pypi-launch 12. https://talkpython.fm/episodes/transcript/159/inside-the-new-pypi-launch 13. https://pythonbytes.fm/episodes/show/75/pypi.org-officially-launches 14. https://status.python.org/incidents/ptvp1wnn0jmq 15. https://status.python.org/incidents/ttdz2bj310xw 16. https://github.com/cabotage/cabotage-app/commit/6e7eafce737726a04bd6ce0896845f6cf2f7bd29 17. https://status.python.org/incidents/w9zkk6k75xrc 18. https://status.python.org/incidents/0gyxs265qp6b 19. https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/pull/3827 20. https://twitter.com/nlhkabu/status/988856279526465537 21. https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/pull/3854 22. https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/pull/3841 23. https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/pull/3839 24. https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/pull/3865 25. https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/pull/3822 26. https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/pull/3856 27. https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/pull/3800 28. https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/pull/3778/files 29. https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/pull/3811/files 30. https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/pull/3821/files 31. https://www.meetup.com/nycpython/events/249722192/ 32. https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1JHTvs58DaHJzha8aN8oz_IYaiyZlupgioAB3d5MnnFw/edit 33. https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/pull/3837 34. https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/issues/3836 35. https://github.com/pypa/python-packaging-user-guide/pull/471 36. https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/pull/3863 37. https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/pull/3871 38. https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/pull/3864 39. https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/pull/3820 40. https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/pull/3481 41. https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/pull/3619 42. https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/pull/3805 43. https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/pull/2010 44. https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/issues/3668 45. https://github.com/jdufresne 46. https://github.com/pypa/setuptools/pull/1340 47. https://github.com/joke2k/faker/pull/750 48. https://github.com/ralic/Lein_Reagent/issues/1 49. https://github.com/python/pypi-infra/pull/24 50. https://docs.python.org/3.6/distutils/packageindex.html#package-index 51. https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/pull/3450 52. https://warehouse.readthedocs.io/development/reviewing-patches/ 53. https://ernest.ly/blog/working 54. https://wiki.python.org/psf/PackagingSprints
