I am fairly sure if you give the PyPA that suggestion, they will just deflate at the thought of the workload.  Besides, we already offer private repos for free, several ways ranging from devpi to python -m SimpleHTTPServer in a specially created directory.

Subject: [Python-ideas] Pypi private repo's

 

I am sure this has been discussed before, and this might not even be the best place for this discussion, but I just wanted to make sure this has been thought about.

What if pypi.org supported private repos at a cost, similar to npm?

This would be able to help support the cost of pypi, and hopefully make it better/more reliable, thus in turn improving the python community.

If this discussion should happen somewhere else, let me know.
