Honestly, to cut things short, I think we should go with GitHub and pay them for enterprise support, if they'll take our money.
This sounds like a pronouncement. I really don't mean this to sound snarky, but let's not waste Brett's time, my time, and the GitLab CEO's time if PEP 507 doesn't have a realistic chance of being accepted. Cheers, -Barry

Don't worry about my time; I was prepared to spend this time on this topic and put in this amount of effort. Let me ask python-committers a question before we call this, so if you want to hold off asking GitLab's CEO any questions until I get my answers from python-committers that's fine.

Maybe GitLab's CEO would see this as a challenge? To me, it just doesn't sound like there's much difference in functionality between the two, and then the vast name recognition of GitHub makes it the default choice.

Possibly, but I'm not sure how valuable (to us?) that would be. They certainly have to be conscious of differentiation from their major competitor. Cheers, -Barry
