As of today, the new Python Package Index at pypi.org, powered by Warehouse, is in beta. What does that mean?

From https://pypi.org/help/#beta :

The site is robust, but not *fully* tested and 'production ready'. This means: * The UI may return unusual or erroneous results * Performance may not yet be optimised * Some features that you used in the old interface (pypi.python.org) may be missing * We need your feedback to get the site production ready While we are in beta, the pypi.org infrastructure cannot yet support all of the API traffic generated by our users running pip install, so don't explicitly point to it in automated production setups. But we want you to try it and test it, and we're occasionally redirecting portions of that traffic in load tests we announce on our status page. Uploads, search, and release management are working well, and project maintainers and owners should use this version of PyPI over the legacy site, which no longer supports uploading releases.

Congrats and thanks to the team, and onwards to the next milestone (see https://wiki.python.org/psf/WarehouseRoadmap ), the launch and redirect! -- Sumana Harihareswara Changeset Consulting https://changeset.nyc
