User ratings and comments are the future for "app store" style sites such as PyPI
Interestingly, I consider sites like PyPI as developer resources rather than the more end-user-centric "App Store" sites.
While I don't consider it bad to provide support for commenting and rating, I find it much less valuable than for end-user-centric sites. But then, some may find me a bit retro. :-/
When it comes to comments and recommendations for selecting software packages, developers *are* the end users :) Cheers, Nick. -- Nick Coghlan | ncoghlan@gmail.com | Brisbane, Australia ---------------------------------------------------------------
