It's an interesting cross-over - the pip/pypi integration is definitely distutils-sig's domain, managing the CPython MSI packages is more python-dev. However, distutils-sig has a naturally higher proportion of folks interested in the general problem of software distribution (whether with Python specific tools or platform native ones). It's also the home of packaging.python.org maintenance, and as the Python ecosystem provider for OneGet becomes usable, it should likely be covered somewhere in there (perhaps in https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/deployment.html#os-packaging-installers although that section is currently still just a stub) Cheers, Nick. -- Nick Coghlan | ncogh...@gmail.com | Brisbane, Australia
