[Python-Dev] PyPI comments and ratings, *really*?

If I understand that term correctly, it's about disguise: how would
I be able to answer that question?

PyPI is not just (and perhaps not even primarily) there for the package
authors, but for the package users (and not surprisingly, it's
primarily the package authors who ask for banning the user opinions).

I'm just not willing to submit to one side; hence the poll.
