Tarek Ziadé <ziade.ta...@gmail.com> added the comment: Notice that there's another issue: maintainer is not written in the Metadata if author is provided.
Plus, PyPI has its own role system: owner+maintainer, that has nothing to do with the package Metadata (it's just who registered the package and who was granted some access) So at the end, if we don't manage roles at the Metadata level, I don't see any good reason not to have one single 'authors' option with a list of authors. Having the mail like you've described is a good idea too. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6992> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
