As folks may be aware, I am moderating a panel called "Directions in Packaging" on the Saturday afternoon at PyCon US.
Before that though, I am also organising what I am calling a "Packaging & Distribution Mini-Summit" as an open space on the Friday night (we have one of the larger open space rooms reserved, so we should have a fair bit of space if a decent crowd turns up).
I wasn't going to be at PyCon, but I changed my plans specifically to participate in this. Thanks for setting this up.
An overview of what I'm hoping we can achieve at the session is at https://us.pycon.org/2013/community/openspaces/packaginganddistributionminis... (that page should be editable by anyone that has registered for PyCon US).
Cool. A major difficulty in these sorts of discussions is that people have different problems they want to solve and argue about solutions without clearly stating their problems. If you don't mind, I'll try to find some time in the next few days to add a section to that page to list goals/problems. It might also be a good idea to link to or assemble a list of PEPs that people are encouraged to review ahead of time as homework.
