[Baypiggies] Looking for help with packaging and git

[Mahmoud Hashemi]

Hey Irv/all! I'd be happy to meet up to review some of those things for an
hour. I'll ping you off-list for that.

The talk Glen mentioned was based on this blog post
<http://sedimental.org/the_packaging_gradient.html>. Actually I have a
fresh update on that: after the PyCon 2018 packaging sprint we're turning
it into the new Python Packaging Guide <https://packaging.python.org/>
Overview. Rough draft here:
https://github.com/pypa/python-packaging-user-guide/pull/519

Feel free to chime in on that GitHub thread if you have feedback.

Happy packaging!
