<div>As usual, <a href="https://wiki.python.org/psf/PackagingWG/2018-03-12-Warehouse">we had a Warehouse core developers' meeting on Monday</a>. The last week has seen a<span class="author-a-chjvz78zrz73zz75z0z89zz85zz77zwz83zta"> lot of polish and bugfixing and documentation for Warehouse. For instance, <a href="https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/pull/3212">project deletion is cleaner</a>, we <a href="https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/pull/3166">more consistently indicate dangerous actions on a page</a>, and <a href="https://warehouse.readthedocs.io/api-reference/integration-guide/#migrating-to-the-new-pypi">there's now a migration guide for third-party services</a> which <a href="https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/issues/2935">we told several projects about</a>. We've done some infrastructural work, like <a href="https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/pull/3076">Datadog instrumentation</a>, <a href="https://github.com/pypa/conveyor/commits?author=ewdurbin&since=2018-03-06T05:00:00Z&until=2018-03-15T04:00:00Z">"Conveyor" (a shim for URL redirects)</a>, and <a href="https://github.com/cabotage/cabotage-app/commits?author=ewdurbin&since=2018-03-06T05:00:00Z&until=2018-03-15T04:00:00Z">Cabotage improvements</a>. <a href="https://ernest.ly/imgs/cabotage-release-scale-up-scale-down.gif">Here's an animated GIF demo of release phase commands (scale up, scale down).</a> And we improved other codebases as well, to <a href="https://github.com/travis-ci/docs-travis-ci-com/pull/1726">fix Travis docs</a>, <a href="https://github.com/pypa/warehouse-camo/pull/1">get our HTTPS proxy service to deal with big embedded images</a>, and <span class="author-a-chjvz78zrz73zz75z0z89zz85zz77zwz83zta"><a href="https://github.com/pypa/readme_renderer/pull/65">deal better with parsing invalid URLs in READMEs</a>. </span></span><br></div>

<div>P.S. Usually I compose these weekly report emails in plain text; here I'm doing it in HTML with a plaintext fallback. Let me know if it's better, awful, etc. Also nearly no one <i>replies</i> to these emails so I'd also welcome your "hey this is useful to me!" offlist reply. <br></div>
