I have no issue moving things to the PyPA, the list was more of a ‘which of 
these is useful’ check

Depending on how vital a particular bit of functionality is to pip, we’re 
likely going to want most libraries that are pulling functionality out of pip 
to live under the PyPA banner, and ideally should be setup in a way that 
existing pip contributors can work on them as well. While conceptually these 
are becoming distinct entities, for end users they’re going to be part of the 
nebulous thing that is pip, and changes and for “core” bits, pip wouldn’t want 
to lose the ability to work on these bits of functionality directly.


Quick clarification— That’s not to suggest that any particular one of these 
libraries need to move under the PyPA banner at this point. Just that as a 
general rule of thumb, stuff that is core to pip, we’re going to want the above 
before we would likely accept a PR that switches pip over to using it (again, 
depending on how “core” it is).
