[VOTE] PyPA as a PSF Fiscal Sponsoree
by Dustin Ingram Oct. 8, 2020

Oct. 8, 2020

As a result of the discussion at https://discuss.python.org/t/pypa-as-a-psf-fiscal-sponsoree/4939/, I'm calling for a vote on the following proposal: > I propose that the Python Packaging Authority become a Fiscal Sponsoree of the Python Software Foundation. Per PEP 609, a vote is triggered when a PyPA committer (not the proposer) seconds the proposal. Afterwards, this proposal will be put to a vote on this mailing list over a 7 day period. Each PyPA committer (member of this list) can vote once, and can choose one of +1 and -1. If at least two thirds of voters vote +1, then the vote succeeds. This list currently has 39 members, so we will need 26 votes of +1 to pass.

[VOTE] Move the build / python-build project into the PyPA
by Paul Ganssle Oct. 6, 2020

Oct. 6, 2020

The build / python-build (github <https://github.com/FFY00/python-build>, docs <https://python-build.readthedocs.io/en/latest/>) project is a new tool designed to be a canonical PEP 517 front-end for building Python packages. It is a backend-agnostic tool (i.e. it does not require a setup.py) that has an isolated build mode (PEP 518, the default) and a non-isolated build mode (for distro packagers and those who want to build in a custom environment), and provides both a CLI tool and an extension. Following PEP 609, as a member of the PyPA, I would like to nominate it for acceptance as an official PyPA project. I originally nominated this on September 8th, which was seconded (albeit casually) by Bernat <https://discuss.python.org/t/moving-python-build-to-pypa/4390/38> and Dustin <https://discuss.python.org/t/moving-python-build-to-pypa/4390/39>, but the vote was delayed until the mailing list was set up. For more background, the original thread proposing its inclusion in the PyPA is here: https://discuss.python.org/t/moving-python-build-to-pypa/4390 Best, Paul
