The OP of this thread is not alone -- folks want an authoritative source
Authority is built over time. Unless someone starts doing this, there will never be any authoritative source. In case it’s not obvious, none of the projects or groups with existing authority have the resource (and/or the interest) to take this on. The best route to leverage existing authority is for someone to start a new project, and then once it has reached a certain level of maturity, apply for PyPA membership. Unfortunately, too much of this discussion is framed as “someone should”, or “it would be good if”. No-one is saying “I will”. Naming groups, like “the PyPA should” doesn’t help either - groups don’t do things, people do. Who in the PyPA? Me? Nope, sorry, I don’t have the time or interest - I’d *use* a curated index, I sure as heck couldn’t *create* one. Paul.
