I'd love to have an easy way to keep them in the loop.
I'm one of the maintainers on https://github.com/docker-library/python (which is what results in https://hub.docker.com/_/python), and I'd love to have an easy way to keep myself in the loop too! O:) Is there a lower-frequency mailing list where things like this are normally posted that I could follow? (I don't want to be a burden, although we'd certainly really love to have more upstream collaboration on that repo -- we do our best to represent upstream as correctly/accurately as possible, but we're not experts!)
would it make sense to add a packaging section to our documentation or to write an informational PEP?
FWIW, I love the idea of an explicit "packaging" section in the docs (or a PEP), but I've maintained that for other projects before and know it's not always easy or obvious. :) ♥, - Tianon 4096R / B42F 6819 007F 00F8 8E36 4FD4 036A 9C25 BF35 7DD4 PS. thanks doko for giving me a link to this thread! :D
