VOTE: adding pypi-publish to PyPA on GitLab
by William Woodruff April 2, 2026

April 2, 2026

Hi PyPA committers, I'd like to open a vote on transferring pypi-publish to the PyPA GitLab org (*not* GitHub): https://gitlab.com/trailofbits/pypi-publish For a bit of context: pypi-publish is a GitLab "component", which is roughly analogous to a GitHub Action. Trail of Bits has created this component as a way to streamline GitLab usage of Trusted Publishing and attestations, similar to how pypa/gh-action-pypi-publish has streamlined usage of both on GitHub. If accepted, I would be a primary maintainer on pypi-publish, along with my co-maintainer and colleague Facundo Tuesca (@facutuesca on both GitHub and GitLab). Separately, the astute observer will note that PyPA doesn't have an official GitLab org yet. Ee is currently working on having gitlab.com/pypa released to the PyPA, but in the meantime there's a "holding pattern" organization with a subgroup for PyPA here: https://gitlab.com/python-software-foundation https://gitlab.com/python-software-foundation/pypa Best, William Woodruff

FYI Staffing Changes to PSF Accounting Team
by Phyllis Dobbs Sept. 5, 2025

Sept. 5, 2025

Hello, everyone, Laura Graves will be on leave starting in early October and plans to return in late January 2026. While Laura is on leave, we are bringing in a Temporary Staff Accountant named Connor Quilty. He'll begin onboarding with us early next week, so you all can expect to hear from him and see him on Slack and email soon as Laura hands off work. In additional good news for the Accounting Team, the new Finance Manager, Kelly Ragland, formally accepted our offer last night and will start September 22nd! She comes to us from the Colorado School of Mines and has lots of experience including fiscal sponsorees and nonprofit accounting, using CiviCRM, and developing Python scripts to automate reporting for her stakeholders at CSM. *As we make these staffing transitions, please contact accounting(a)python.org <accounting(a)python.org>* instead of team members individually so we can best manage work behind the scenes. Let us know if you have any questions! Sincerely, Phyllis A. Dobbs Controller Python Software Foundation
